Up next in my rundown of AL hitting candidates with an early track toward the Hall of Fame is Grady Sizemore. Anyone who has watched Sizemore play knows his ability and potential. After five seasons, Sizemore has been an All Star three times and last year was a 30-30 guy for the first time. At this point he profiles like a young Barry Bonds, without the supplements.
Sizemore's most widely collected rookie card is the 2000 Bowman Draft Pick:
2023 COMC BINGE - PART 20 FORRY 5000

I'm thinking that Miguel Cabrera is slightly ahead of him in Hall of Fame voting only because the biggest numbers when it comes to Hall voting are hits and home runs and Cabrera has Sizemore beat on these.
ReplyDeleteAsk anyone who they want right now and they'd say the guy that actually plays defense (Grady). Hall voting is sometimes suspect.
