How the fuck does Piazza not get in with these credentials:

.308 BA lifetime, 427 HR, 12 All Star games, Rookie of the Year winner, Best Hitting catcher of All Time.

:wtf

But, Houston Lastros Biggio gets in for getting 3,000 hits? That dude played 20 years and had ONE SEASON of 200+ hits! ONE!

:ays

Piazza is "rumored" to have used roids, but there's zero proof whatsoever.

Yet, people claim Biggio was "clean".

Cowherd put up a good set of stats regarding this issue:

Before age 35, Piazza hit a HR every 15 at bats (which is INSANE btw). From 35 yrs old forward, he hit a HR every 23 at bats.Got older, lost bat speed, power, normal.

Before age 35, Biggio hit a HR every 42 at bats. From 35yrs old forward, he hit a HR every 31 at bats. Biggio had his best HR hitting, most powerful years at the end of his career. :thougt

They just need to let people who used steroids in. If they need to they can make a special exhibit in the Hall showing that these players played during the steroid era.

I've thought the steroid wing of the hall would suffice.

Still, there's no reason to hold out a guy like Piazza unless there's cold, hard facts he did roids.

Biggio getting in is laughable.

Dude went from barely making a minor league team because he had connections to becoming the GOAT.

Steroids. Everyone in that era did them I'd bet. Looking at your Randy Johnson. From sub .500 W/L and over 4.00 ERA to possibly best ever overnight....HRM ON YOU SIR!

Piazza was my favorite.

I got a good bit of his merchandise from 20years ago and up.

MLB HiF is a bigger joke than WWE's :justsayin

there is no way to know 100% that anyone was clean, baseball did this to themselves, the team owners are more to blame than the players

He was a HOF'er pre roids, for certain.

His HR king record should be abolished, it's a stain on the game as are the records of McGwire, Sosa, etc.

That being said, guys like Chuck Knoblauch were doing roids and look how that worked out for him. :justsayin
