… Is there anyone that DOES think Rollins is Hall of Fame bound?

I have seen some writers say this. I think Olney may have. In my mind he has a legitimate shot. This core of the Phillies will need to have representation in the HOF. If not him, then who?
JacksTigers
Doc. That’s it.

But can he really be included as the core? He has only been with the Phillies for 2 years. Now if they win another WS, then absolutely.
JacksTigers
That has nothing to do with the HOF. You don’t induct by what team they were on, but who were the games greatest players. Rollins was not but Doc was.

I’d like to see another team in baseball history with this type of success in which no member of the core was in the HOF
JacksTigers
A couple things are wrong with this. First, I said that Doc would probably be in the HOF. Second, they have only won one World Series and that was without Doc, Lee, and Oswalt. Just because he is a good player on a good team doesn’t mean that Rollins should go into the HOF. What about the ’84 Tigers, they don’t have anyone in the HOF.

If Rollins makes the HoF before Trammell I would be furious.

Rollins, Utley and Howard are VERY overrated. If Rollins is Hall of Fame bound, then so if Rafael Furcal and Edgar Renteria. At that point, they mind as well shut down the Hall because everybody will start getting in. Ryan Howard is no better than Carlos Pena and Utley if he stayed healthy is the only legit shot but he would have to play consistently good until he’s close to 40 years old.

I can see Utley getting in. He had 5 straight years of a bWAR over 5.7. Some well over.
Rollins has only been over 5.0 bWAR once in his career. No way he’s a HOFer in my book.

The post about the Latos trade is weird.
He says the trade was bad for the Padres in part because they just drafted Austin Hedges. Yeah, a catcher drafted out of HS with a super raw, questionable bat with an ETA of 2016 (at best?) definitely makes Grandal useless.
