Of course I know Steady Eddie is a HOFer, Bss, I've still got the t-shirt from when he and Gary Carter got inducted. He was a role model for me as a kid. I'm just saying I'd take him over Steve Garvey any day.
Brain fart on Parker. I also loved the Cobra's game, but I was thinking of Willie Stargell when I wrote that, who is also a HOFer.
Anyone remember the Red Sox George Scott? Another solid 1B from the late 70's early 80's era.

If Steve Garvey deserves it then so does Keith Hernandez.
If Garvey wins, that would be a pathetic joke. Unfortunately, the joke would be on us.

"Steve Garvey beats his wife."
My friend's older brother wasn't allowed to bring this banner into Yankee Stadium. Late 70s? Early 80s?
If memory serves, he handed it off to some ticket-less folks who paraded around outside with it for a while.

Eddie Murray is in the hall,
Eddie Murray is in the hall, and Dave Parker wasn't a first baseman
Keith and Garv had some great seasons, but in the end weren't .300 hitters
Mattingly never played on a championship team, nor did cecil cooper I don't think
Not that these are hard rules or anything, but the ones who manage to slip by them (like Jeff bagwell) do seem to be the exceptions
Here's bochy outfoxing donnie baseball in a super clutch situation
when I think of donnie as a Dodger this is the event most cemented into my head
