Is Curt Schilling a HOFer?

[90'sBayPlayer]

I think that he has a borderline chance. I will be interesting to see how the voters react to pitchers from the steroid era.

Do y'all have baseball amnesia? Do you only know Baseball for 95 on? I ain't trippin, if Schilling does get in it wont be on the first ballot.I'm not saying that he wasn't a big game pitcher but look at the stats of his vs those who aren't in yet.
Lungs hope you aren't still mad since I hurt your feelings.

 

[ALL BOUT CHICKEN]

he's already in the hall of bloody ankles and socks.

 

[Chree]

^ lol, yeah he is a hofer too

 

[LA Dodgers]

im not sure....i think it will be a battle....wont come easy......he upset many "baseball people" early in his career with the Phillies and his numbers arent outstanding throughout his career............beinga "non steroid guy" may help...

 

[Tha Mack]

^^^^or a "hasn't got caught yet guy"

 

[I. Cold]

easily..

anyone who says no doesnt know SHIT about baseball

US?! Are you fucking kidding me? Thats real good that you can look up stats but have you ever seen the man pitch? You see what he does in playoffs? You see what he does WHEN IT MATTERS? Theres other shit BESIDES stats that you gotta take into consideration. And I cant think of any other pitcher that was more clutch, more methodical than curt. you know that dude's read the art of war like 3 times. He has a warplan for EVERY batter hes going to face. The dude puts in work and is tough as shit.

No one is questioning his talent. He only has 216 wins when 300 is usually the watermark. And yes have seen him pitch many times. Fucc what you take into consideration, unless you have a HOF vote then have a seat. If you read the whole thread I said borderline, not never. I would take Bob Gibson, if you know who that is , over Schilling. Other that rings and strikeouts stat wise he ain't the bees knees, lol. I would take Pedro over that fool.

 

[90'sBayPlayer]

Oh shit I just seen that ur from AZ. No wonder, it all makes sense. He gave you guys a ring and you'll be forever swinging from his nuts, instead of looking at thins objectively .

 

[T-Rip]

easily..

anyone who says no doesnt know SHIT about baseball

yep, not even his big mouth can prevent him from getting into the hall of fame

 

[Lamberto Quintero]

He should get in IMO...

man.. get the FUCK outta here with that shit. You're comparing curt schilling to BOB GIBSON? the guy played in the 50s-60s, a completely different era in baseball! where you fuck you get bob gibson from? lmao

and curts got damn near the same winning percentage as that dude (69%), gibson has ONE more strikeout than curt (3117 to 3116). you act like theres some crazy gap between the two's stats.

swingin from his nuts? cuz he won the ws for my team? who the fuck are you to tell me why I have the opinions that I do. He doesnt deserve to be HOF cuz he won the ws with the dbacks, he deserves to be in cuz hes a HOF player thats got 3 championships under his belt.. and because he knows how to closeout important games.

please find me one (legit) baseball columnist that thinks schilling should be HOF.

the only thing is, the writers have to vote him in, anyone he did wrong over the years will use that against him...the real question should be is he a first ballot?

good point. he did have a big fuckin mouth and pissed off a lot of writers.. Im sure a lot of them will hold a grudge. hopefully after 5 years passes, they'll learn to forget the bullshit and vote him in.

 

[Tha Mack]

if i could assasinate anyone in the world it would be Curt Schilling, but ya, i can't imagine him not getting in

 

[ArGenTin3]

Curt Schilling is getting in the HOF.

His career 11-3 record in the playoffs which is the best mark in MLB history will be his ticket into Cooperstown.
