    Bryce Hyper is overrated. Pitchers will adjust to him and he will be average at best.

    guys being way too critical. I'd say everyone on my list had a shot at least. If Chapman stays in closer's role and stays healthy, he might be the most likely.

    no offense picker but some of the names on that list are comical

    MLB hall of fame is by far the hardest to get into

    when you think of MLB hall of famers they are all for the most part no doubters

    if you even have to think for a second if they are or not chances are they are not

    upton
    chapman
    heyward
    hanson

    let me see mike trout do what he is doing this year for the next 12-14 years and not drop off production wise in any significant way

    just look at cy young voting

    Come on Mayan...you know there is NOTHING one can tell Kerry that he doesn't already know.

    Kerry loves to make up stories and tell them over and over and over......hoping they come true. You, allaboutthea$$, gates, etc. etc. can vouch for that. When you ask him to back up his claims.....he just repeats the stories again and calls you some really cool name.

    lol bronx that is probably the 13 candidates most likely to do it.

    Castro never walks, hits for a high average, and never misses games. That is the best formula for 3000 hits one can have.

    I love the race of cheetos, chi-archie, but that isn't how the word is used in his sentence so don't try to muck up an argument.

    ''
    While biologists sometimes use the concept of race to make distinctions among fuzzy sets of traits, others in the scientific community suggest that the idea of race is often used [5] in a naive[6] or simplistic way. Among humans, race has no taxonomic significance; all living humans belong to the same hominid subspecies, Homo sapiens sapiens.[7][8] Social conceptions and groupings of races vary over time, involving folk taxonomies [9] that define essential types of individuals based on perceived traits. Scientists consider biological essentialism obsolete,[10] and generally discourage racial explanations for collective differentiation in both physical and behavioral traits.[6][11]
    When people define and talk about a particular conception of race, they create a social reality through which social categorization is achieved.[12] In this sense, races are said to be social constructs.[13] These constructs develop within various legal, economic, and sociopolitical contexts, and may be the effect, rather than the cause, of major social situations.[14] While race is understood to be a social construct by many, most scholars agree that race has real material effects in the lives of people through institutionalized practices of preference and discrimination.
    Socioeconomic factors, in combination with early but enduring views of race, have led to considerable suffering within disadvantaged racial groups.[15] Racial discrimination often coincides with racist mindsets, whereby the individuals and ideologies of one group come to perceive the members of an outgroup as both racially defined and morally inferior.[16] As a result, racial groups possessing relatively little power often find themselves excluded or oppressed, while hegemonic individuals and institutions are charged with holding racist attitudes.[17] Racism has led to many instances of tragedy, including slavery and genocide.[18] Scholars continue to debate the degrees to which racial categories are biologically warranted and socially constructed, as well as the extent to which the realities of race must be acknowledged in order for society to comprehend and address racism adequately.[19]
    In the social sciences theoretical frameworks such as Racial formation theory and Critical race theory investigate implications of race as social construction by exploring how the images, ideas and assumptions of race are expressed in everyday life. A large body of scholarship has traced the relationships between the historical, social production of race in legal and criminal language and their effects on the policing and disproportionate incarceration of people of color.''

    Quick reading for you.
