Considering Mark Mcgwire only received 24% of the votes (I think you need 75% to be elected), does anyone think Sammy will make it to the HOF?
Dominicans to CooperstownFormer San Francisco Giants pitcher Juan Marichal expects to be accompanied by several countrymen in the Cooperstown Baseball Hall of Fame soon. He said that it "will rain Dominicans," as reported in Saturday's Listin Diario. Marichal has been the only Dominican in the hall since 1983, after a successful 16-year career in the Major Leagues during which he won 243 games. Marichal predicts that the next member will be Sammy Sosa, if the latter decides to stop playing in the Major Leagues. To qualify, players need to have been retired for at least five years. Otherwise, he says Sosa has the numbers - 588 home runs and 1,575 runs batted in. Other future Dominican candidates include Pedro Martinez, Vladimir Guerrero, David Ortiz, Albert Pujols, Manny Ramirez and Alex Rodriguez.
