Matt Whitener of MSN.com posed the question which player from each team would hear they named called to the hallowed fraternity of players who have standout careers in Major League Baseball. For the Miami Marlins, it could be Gary Sheffield who is the next in line to carry his bust into the building.
“As things currently stand, there is a chance of this never happening — as in a Marlins cap may never adorn a HOF plaque. Giancarlo Stanton could have been the best chance, but his departure for the Bronx and the likelihood of the greatness that stands ahead there could overshadow his Marlins tenure in full,” Whitener writes.
