Here's the problem. Usually you look to determine where the HOF candidate ranks with others in his era.

Maddux, Glavine, Smoltz, Mussina, Johnson, Pedro, Clemens, Moyer, Halladay, Schilling, Sabathia, Colon, Moyer, Wakefield, and several others had part of their prime years overlap with Pettitte's prime years. I think there are 83 pitchers in the HOF now. That includes 7 listed above.
How deep can you go? If you say 10, he would have to be better than Clemens, Schilling, or Sabathia.
It's a great debate.

Bottom line is this: he was a Yankee, so he's out. If you principally played as a Yankee, your case has to be perfect to get into the Hall. It's why a guy like Kirby Puckett, who had a short career that ended due to injury is in, and why Don Mattingly, who had a short career that ended to due injury, is out. Look at their career numbers. Practically identical. But one was a Yankee.

Funny thing about Mattingly: When I was in college in Norfolk, as a Yankee fan I would always go to a game when the Columbus Clippers were in town to play the Tidewater Tides (Mets). Saw some great players on both teams. When I saw Mattingly, he was a little known outfielder on Columbus. I think at that time they had Steve Balboni and a guy named Marshall Brant playing first base. And they both hit a boat load of homers. I remember being shocked when Mattingly got called up to the Yankees and moved to first base. Turned out to be a great move obviously with 9 Gold Gloves.

Fun fact: Mattingly played every OF position as well as 1B, 2B, and 3B for the Yankees. :shock:

Trying the old Puckett reach-around again I see. Mattingly had 6 good season out of 14. He played 1st base compared to Centerfield. Puckett made 10 all-star teams in 12 season, Mattingly 6 in 14, and Puckett lead his team to 2 World Series Championships. Mattingly was the original Joe Mauer as people on this site point out. Great early career, not so great last 6 years. Puckett has a higher Average, higher WAR, more hits and is close to Mattingly in power stats, even thou he wasn't a power hitter. Puckett would carry the Twins on his back, Mattingly made 1 playoff.

I would have no problem with Mattingly in the HOF, but he's no Kirby Puckett.

Mattingly was the greatest player in the game for five to six years. Puckett was never as good as that. And Mattingly wasn't a shitty person.

And mentioning World Series? I mean, when we point out Munson was the most valuable player on back-to-back World Champions, and hit .371 in post-season play, we're told championships don't matter.

More accurately, championships and post-season matter -- unless you're a Yankee.

Around the time when the MLB players said so.

https://www.nytimes.com/1986/07/07/spor ... ingly.html

Mattingly's Hall of Fame Monitor Score is 134. 100+ = "likely Hall of Famer"; 130+ = "lock"

"Lock" -- unless you are a Yankee.

I have no problem with Munson either, and Puckett wasn't a shitty person. I haven't met Mattingly, but I've met Puckett and know his friends, he's was always a good person. I have never heard anything bad about Puckett other than the Klobuchar witch hunt. Throwing dirt towards Puckett doesn't make Mattingly any better. Puckett was acquitted of the BS charges by Amy Klobuchar. It was basically he said, she said. You are blind to the facts about how good Puckett was beyond the stats. You need to find someone else that fits Mattingly's profile better than Puckett, maybe another first basemen.

That was one year. 1986. I’ll give you 85, 86 and 87. Beyond that? It’s a real stretch to say 5-6 years....

Let’s play this game with different variables, shall we?

1. SAT Score

2. “Likely admission to Harvard”

3. “Unless you are Asian”

This comparison is 100% accurate. Mattingly is like an Asian trying to get into Harvard. :thumb:

According to Baseball Reference he's a similar batter to 10 other players, 9 of whom are also not in the HOF. Interestingly, the only similar batter who is in the HOF on that list is Kirby Puckett, but since you said he doesn't belong in the HOF then that hurts Donnie's case.

With another 20 votes (155) 37.6% of total, Jeter still at 100%, Walker and Schilling staying strong at 80%+ but Bonds and Clemens are now both below the line at 74.8% and 73.5%. Will be interesting to see if they even stay above 70% at this point. As said before, with nobody of interest next year, I see them missing this year but getting voted in next year.

Probably depends on how this whole Astros cheating thing works out. Guys are getting fired left and right now for cheating, so how would the optics work to, this year or next year, induct into the HOF two of the most notorious cheaters of all?

Interesting, because three guys on that list had careers shortened by injuries: Mattingly; Puckett, who is in; Tony Oliva, who should be in. It's mind boggling that Tony Oliva isn't it. I know he had a short career but, man, what a player.

So I see that list as supporting Mattingly.

Mattingly’s stats trailed off after 1989. 1990 was his only really subpar year, but I think the overall downward trend may have kept him out so far.

That's true. After his crippling back injury, Mattingly soldiered on, playing well above average for a number of years -- just nothing like he was from 1984 through 1989.

Oliva's injury ended his effective career at 32. Yes, he limped along for four more seasons, but he was really just an average ballplayer.

Both of these guys though, for many years, were far and away better on their worst day than many of the guys who made it to the Hall by compiling over 15-20 years. I think what Mattingly and Oliva did is far tougher than compiling. Being the "best" or "near best" player in the game for five or six years -- the list of guys who can say that is much short than the list of "compilers."

three. You keep expanding the window of "greatness"....it's really three years for Mattingly. '85-'87.

You're out of your mind. He had six consecutive seasons with an OPS+ that are Hall of Fame type years.

Where are you drawing that line? 120?

Then Paul Goldschmidt should just pack it in, because he's a mortal lock for the HOF at this point.

Agreed, if Scott Rolen gets in why even bother excluding people from making it. Rolen was a perfectly fine, kinda above average player throughout his career. Not a HOF'er though.

Looks like Schilling is trending out and Walker is still hanging on but may wind up close in his last try. Bonds Clemens about to be back in the 60-70% when voting is announced today.
