Baseball Blogs Weigh In: Kimbrel, Cards, Griffey

By Zach Links | November 15, 2015 at 9:08am CDT

On this date in 2007, Barry Bonds was indicted by a San Francisco federal grand jury on four counts of perjury and one count of obstruction of justice, as Leo Panetta of NationalPastime.com writes. Four years prior, Bonds allegedly lied to a grand jury about his PED use, and he potentially could have been sentenced to up to 30 years in prison if convicted of all charges. The slugger was initially convicted on a count of obstruction of justice, but that ruling was overturned earlier this year.

Here’s this week’s look around the baseball blogosphere:

  • Roto Professor compared the returns of the two Craig Kimbrel trades.
  • Redbird Rants ran down five first base trade candidates for the Cards.
  • Baseball Hot Corner wonders if Ken Griffey Jr. will be the first unanimous HOF inductee.
  • Inside The ’Zona discussed the usefulness of extreme fly ball relievers.
  • TBOH ran down the best pitches thrown by the Phillies.
  • Nats GM spoke with Yankees prospect James Kaprielian.
  • Yankees Unscripted says a starter could help the Bombers’ bullpen.
  • Outfield Fly Rule helps Braves fans place their anger.
  • Jays Journal stacked Toronto against the rest of the AL East.
  • Bronx Bomber Blogger says the Yanks should consider Ryan Raburn.
  • Blue Jay Hunter says Marco Estrada and the Blue Jays belong together.
  • Pinstriped Prospects analyzed Aaron Hicks.
  • Baseball Essential predicts David Price’s next deal.
  • Brew Crew Ball says it’s time to reexamine MiLB’s drug policy.

    It would be nice to see a unanimous vote finally and Griffey JR would be the perfect guy to get the honor he remained clean during the games darkest days and was a great ambassador for baseball. Unfortunately some voter will try to make a point or simply abstain from voting, Dan Lebatard used to have a hall of fame vote that says all you need to know about the entire process, why he ever had a vote to begin with is mind boggling. You also have voters who leave guys off because they believe they will get in with out their vote and they squeeze another guy on their ballot.

      Not going to happen. It could’ve been Maddux last year, could’ve been Ryan when he got inducted. But nope neither of them were unanimous guys.

      If there was going to be a unanimous vote it would have been done by now. I still want to know why someone didn’t think Maddux was first ballot worthy. Or for that matter, Henderson.

    I wouldn’t call that an analysis of Aaron Hicks, it is more of a brief synopsis of his career.

      Griffey is a better ball player them Maddux in the sense of HOF ballets. 10 gold gloves and 630 HR’s to start! The guy would have surpassed 800 or 900 if he wasn’t hurt all the time working for another gold glove. But these idiot writers won’t be unanimous. And btw, he is the only one who gets in this year. Hoffman will at some point but not for a while.

    Derek Jeter is going to be the first player to get 100% of the vote though.

      Nah, nobody’s ever gonna get 100%. The voting system is too wrecked to ever allow for it.
