clearly should be in the HOF... I'm not even a fan of his, but he's arguably the best second basemen (aside from Joe Morgan) in the last 70 years or so. Crazy.

undoubtedly should be a first ballot HOF....personality and reputation (gay, aids, etc.) will keep him out for a year...maybe two

I'm sure a couple nitwits didn't vote for him because of the spitting thing but he'll surely get in sooner than later.

he's a DB, there's no doubt... as I said, I'm not a fan - but this isn't the nice guy hall of fame, it's the baseball hall of fame.

His offensive numbers are slightly behind Morgan and Carew, but he has *10* gold gloves... I mean, come on - you're telling me he's not a HOFer?

Let me say this, VERY VERY VERY VERY few guys should be first ballot HOF's.

He'll get in, not now.

Pete Rose agrees. So do I.

Baseball great Roberto Alomar has full-blown AIDS but insisted on having unprotected sex, his ex-girlfriend charged Tuesday in a bombshell lawsuit.

what's crazy, is I met this broad and her friends one time. We were in Saratoga for a Poison concert (don't laugh), and recognized these girls in a bar as we had sat next to them at the show.

we start talking to them, and she starts showing us all these photo's of her and robbie.

good thing nothing happened !~~~!

I know he's made some mistakes and a lot of other players didn't like him as a teammate, but I've been an Indians fan for about 45 years and he was the best all around player I've ever seen wearing an Indians uniform.
And he was a little past his prime when he played for Cleveland. IMO numbers don't do him justice. You had to see him play everyday...tough as hell in the clutch as well.

Some voters just wont vote players in their first try ever. Thats why so few get in on first ballot and also why nobody gets unanimous selection.

Alomar just missed it this year. Barring any unforseen events, (PED admission) he is a lock to get in next year. Like a 98% chance without exagerating.
