HedleyLamarr Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 He'll probably never get voted in, but I would love to see Dale Murphy get inducted into the Hall of Fame. During his career, I don't think he ever got over the fact that people were willing to pay him to play baseball..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

During his career, I don't think he ever got over the fact that people were willing to pay him to play baseball.....Murphy's problem is that his numbers don't look that impressive when compared with today's inflated steroid numbers. Two straight MVP awards back then was a pretty big deal. He was for a time the best player in the game and certainly one of the best outfielders of his era. But you rarely hear him mentioned in discussions of the great players of the 80's. It's too bad because the guy could play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
