Yeah I don’t know which Andruw they remember


The argument for Jones is that his peak was good enough for serious HOF consideration. But yeah, he compiled way too many bad stats for several years at the end to ever make it in I'm afraid. But this is what his HOF supporters cite to back him:

quote:

Before his production rapidly declined upon turning 30, Jones produced MLB's third-best WAR from 1998-2007. The two players who ranked ahead of him within this span were Barry Bonds and Alex Rodriguez. The man ranked immediately behind him was his longtime Braves teammate Chipper Jones, who gained a first-ballot Hall of Fame induction last year. Hall of Famers Roberto Clemente, Al Kaline, Ken Griffey Jr. and Mays stand with Ichiro Suzuki as the only other outfielders to win as many Gold Glove Awards as Jones.
