I probably did Doc. It is sad, in two ways. One, Law is still not in the Bucs HOF, and the 2nd is I find myself repeating things on a regular basis!Doc wrote: ↑Wed May 22, 2024 4:56 pmI believe you brought this up last year, Javy.

All were great Pirates, but I have some heartburn over Vernon Law not getting in again.They really need to address this oversight while the Deacon is still with us. He should be the next inductee.
Who's next? Virdon, Skinner, Van Slyke, Pena, Candelaria, Rooker, Drabek, Moose, Ellis, Giusti, all come to mind. I'm sure I'll think of a few others

Veale is a good one as well. So is Matty Alou.Ecbucs wrote: ↑Wed May 22, 2024 8:15 pmI don't understand not selecting Law right now.

I don't know what their criteria is for inclusion, but it is going to have to parallel free agency because it is extremely rare for a player to play even six years in Pittsburgh in the last 30 plus years.
