Please note that this website is currently a work in progress! Lots of interesting data and statistics to come.
I am biased as hell since Walker was my favourite player as a kid. Even trying to put my bias aside though, I think he deserves to get in based on his numbers.
it just scares me that if walker doesnโt get in, no rockie probably ever will.
I got to meet Larry in โ94 at the Big O. He took a team set of cards down to the dugout for me and methodically went through the lineup, having each card signed.
A gem of a man and a giant of Canadian baseball.
I will be sorely disappointed if he doesnโt get in to the HOF.
Larry Walker: hit a walk-off homer against the CEO of racism
Other HOF Candidates: Did not hit a walk-off homer against the CEO of racism, possibly pro-racism
It's gonna be a hard hill to climb to get that last 20%, but I feel hopeful that he's gonna make it there.
I mean, according to Ryan Thibodaux's twitter, he's already at +2 with 0 votes in.
It's not like he has more WAR than that Jeter guy, or anything.
In my mind, his 1997 is the best season by a hitter of all time. .355/.450/.712, 49 HR, 46 2B, 208 H, 130 RBI, 33 SB
Quote the Voters
โCoorsโ
(I actually like Larry, but this fact seems to make voters do a Triple H face)
I really hope Larry Walker gets in. Who cares if his stats are inflated. Thatโs not cheating. Youโre basically invalidating all the accomplishments of an entire roster of a franchise because they play in the mountains. Ergo, youโd invalidate the entire feelings and memories of an entire citiesโ fanbase. The baseball writers owe it to the good people of Denver to put Larry Walker in the Hall, or else whatโs the point of baseball in Colorado.
