Junior

I am a baseball fan, I really like the game.

My game day Griffey jersey.

Ken Griffey, Jr., is probably one of the greatest players in the modern game I have witnessed play the game. A true 5 tool player (Arm, glove, bat, speed, and power). I remember seeing the tail end of Willie Mays, but I am too young to have seen the bulk of his career. There have been other five tool players I have seen, Aaron, Schmidt, Bo, Guerrero, Ichiro, Hamilton, and currently Trout. But Griffey in my opinion is better then all those guys. Griffey played the game right, and had fun doing it.

Today he was elected to the Hall of Fame, and received 437 ballots out of 440, or 99.32%. Three writers for some reason left him off the ballot, I sure they have their reasons, but they should be ashamed of themselves for this omission and not allowed to vote after this...ever.
