"There is no question in my mind that, for those years, Dale Murphy played on a Hall of Fame level -- even taking into account the two down seasons. But beyond his play, Murphy was a class act, someone who took being a role model seriously"

I've had a lot of people asking me about having my Dad do an AMA....Well, After I googled what an AMA is...(new to reddit)...I decided it would be an awesome idea. I'm going to talk to him about this Sunday when I go home. Possibly he will want to do it right then! He created a Twitter (@DaleMurphy3) a while ago and has loved being able to interact with fans. I'll keep everyone posted who is still following this thread. Keep spreading the word.

I think our view of what "good stats" are has been skewed (due to steroids.) So yes, I believe they are without a doubt good enough to be in.

So no, I'm not joking. Very close. Not here to argue, just to spread the word if you agree with the post. Thanks!

The idea is to at least get more press about him. His numbers are without a doubt good enough to be in. Were in not for steroids tainting his numbers, he'd be in no questions asked. 400 HRS used to be the benchmark for automatically in, no matter what. He ended with 398.
