Larry Walker’s Hall of Fame chances are improving. Here’s what’s fueling the former Rockies OF’s rise. | The Denver Post ($)
At last check, Colorado Rockies’ great Larry Walker had garnered 66 percent of the vote from eligible Hall of Fame balloters. This is by far the most support Walker has received since his name first appeared on the ballot in 2011. Patrick Saunders (who was named Colorado Sportswriter of the Year on Monday) spoke to many voters who both back Walker and do not believe he is worthy of enshrinement. For those who don’t support Walker’s induction, the subjects of an injury-riddled career and one of playing at altitude most impact their votes.
