Vince44 202 Posted December 6, 2017 Hasn't this guy made a big enough ass of himself from The Capitol Hill testimony in 2005? RP: Let me make something perfectly clear, I have never used steroids, period! (points finger at the senator asking the questions) MLB: (two months later) RP is suspended for 50 games for violating the substance abuse policy. LOL...what a joke...totally embarrassing.

posty 2,295 Posted December 6, 2017 So if he does comeback and play in the majors for a year or two and then retires, he is eligible to be re-added to the HoF ballot? He is a first ballot... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cmh6476 748 Posted December 6, 2017 When he was doing the Viagra commercials, I was at the K back when there wasn't much crowd to compete with. He came up to the plate and I yelled "woooooddddyyyyy!!@#." He stepped out of the box and glared down the line a good 15 seconds it felt like Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cruzer 1,992 Posted December 6, 2017 One of the smoothest swings I ever saw - lucky to see it up close for so many years.... But yea, Raffy did make an ass out of himself - I can understand why he's not in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vince44 202 Posted December 6, 2017 569 HR 3020 hits .885 career ops 1835 RBI Too bad. Should have retired a year early. Hypocrite of the century. Makes Bonds look good by comparison. The whole world knows for a fact Raffy is a cheater and a liar. Still no rock solid proof on some of these guys in the HOF voting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But yea, Raffy did make an ass out of himself - I can understand why he's not in. I'd put Raffy and Junior as top 2. Raffy was unlucky enough to be the face of all the liars.

edjr 5,538 Posted December 6, 2017 he failed to get in after 10 years like others Wrong. it's 15 years Raffy lasted 4 years, the last year he was on the ballot he got 4.4% MLB HOF = Complete sham Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
