Happy birthday Bobby!

One of my all time favorite players and one that should be in the HOF.

Bobby Grich was a bad ass on the field.  He was my favorite Angel (close call, also really loved Nolan Ryan).

Bobby Grich probably signed something for me on 30 separate occasions.  He was always open to interacting with fans.

At one time I thought he was a bit too fringy to be a HOFer.  But over the last 25 years, with the bar being lowered, there is now absolutely no question whatsoever that this guy should be inducted.

His career was notably better than many others in the HOF.

Where the F*ck is the veterans committee on this?  Its blatantly obvious if you have half a brain.

I have mentioned this a number of times but it is so striking I will repeat it here.

Lifetime WAR:

Derek Jeter 72.4

Bobby Grich 71.1

Let me throw out a quick list of some HOFers with lifetime WAR lower than Grich:

Johnny Mize, Alan Trammell, Ron Santo, Barry Larkin, Gary Carter, Tim Raines, Tony Gwynn, John Smoltz, Jim Palmer, Al Simmons, Eddie Murray, Ivan Rodriguez, Carlton Fisk, Ryne Sandberg, Ernie Banks, Don Drysdale, Roberto Alomar, Don Sutton, Duke Snider, Craig Biggio, Andre Dawson, Willie McCovey, Dave Winfield, Bob Feller, etc, etc,. . .

Seriously, it is freaking ridiculous!!!!!

Grich and Baylor both brought a winning attitude and approach to this franchise, huge thanks to both of them.

Grich for the HOF!

One of the better mustaches n the game!

Completely agree.  His AC skills left a lot to be desired.
