Taken from a friend of mine - he's the head coach for the Czech national team and a MLB envoy. He also played a year in the Swedish league a few years ago.
Enough about him, more about one of greats in the FRBI League.
Believe that he doesn't partake in the booze...
Your buddy is awful short.
Excellent work, Darky.
Dale's a good man. If Jim Rice is in the Hall, Murphy deserves it as well
While trying to find that SI article on him I read awhile back, came across this impressive collection of old articles:

Cool stuff, always liked Murphy, he should be in the Hall.
I don't know about that...
One of the most blatant dropoffs ever, but that guy was so very good for several years. I'll always think highly of him since the Braves were the first baseball team I ever got to see on a daily basis when we got cable.

There were 6 or 7 years when he was absolutely elite. I'd think if you dominate for that long, you should get in.
So Albert Belle is in also.
dale? i thought his name was papa
Belle deserves to be in on the merits of his play. Everyone hates him so it's a longshot. Mattingly might deserve to be in too
Well, in your Hall of Fame where all the marginal players get in, Steve Garvey is a no doubter. That guy was very good for a long time.

More home runs and MVPs than Jeter, make that man a plaque.
Ryno doesnt understand about the Hall of Very Good.
Garvey should be in the hall of eat shit and die because he's whore cunt
I can get onboard with Mattingly as well.

I enjoyed this post
Dale Murphy was totally my hero growing up. So of course i'm going to be hella-biased here.
BUT - he should get into the hall of hame.
Elite player for 6-7 yrs. 2-time mvp. And the absolutely postively cleanest baseball player out there. If the HOF is worried about roids/character issues, then da murph should be begged to come in ;)
Jim from Indiana
Mrs Hamrock, I agree completely. Especially if Rice is a HOFer. He also played for some horrible Braves teams. RBIs and Runs would have been way higher on a good team
I thought Indiana was full of Jimbos.

Is "Jimbo" a particularly strong type of meth?
