No, the one who used to manage the Tigers. He also had one career SB - a steal of home against the Cards on 5/19/81.

I will however get aboard the Lance Berkman HOF Train any day.


Me as well, I've always thought he's had a chance, a good one actually. Being a switch hitter should help & I'm hoping he got a couple more years left to get over 2K hits.

He doesn't have as good of resume as Walker overall, and Walker has been sitting in the 20% range.

I think the "coors effect" has something to do with that, although Crawford boxes are a joke too. But Walker being that low is surprising to me, so go figure.

Walker and Berkman (and Edmonds, too) are in the Hall of Very Good.

That Coors Effect being held against him is unfortunate. Career 141 OPS+ with stellar defense and some speed. Just a great all-around ballplayer, who deserves to be in regardless of where he played 30% of the games in his career.

Funny, Will Clark belongs there with those guys as well.

Edmonds is a bit of a different story, though. He has a pretty strong HOF case, considering position and defense vs those other guys.

If Edmonds somehow makes it, it'll be all those Gold Gloves that put him over the top.
