Thats exactly what I always thought about Rice, a LOT of meaningless stats but he never stepped up when it counted, also at the top of the list every year for hitting into double plays.
But still I'm glad he got in now! certainly NOT a 1st ballot guy though !
As for Larry comparing Rice with Reggie Jackson, You got to be kidding Larry !!! |

The comparison is justified as I was drawing a paralell between the two as different hitters......here, let me draw you a picture.  Rice=Power+ Average+ Hits+ Runs Batted In. Jackson= Power+ Runs Batted In+ just as many double plays and twice as many whiffs!
He is in....and that is all that matters. |
Almost time to get our fish on!!!

Reggie played on lots more talented teams. What would have been if Rice played on those A's and Yankee teams? Bet things would have been different.

You're kidding me---Lynn, Yaz, Fisk, Evans, Burleson, Hobson, Cooper, Petrocelli. Later on Boggs, Greenwell, Gedman, Lansford, Baylor, Dave Henderson.
Yeah, Rice really played with a bunch of ham and eggers  |

You are putting words in my mouth. Re-read my post.....Jackson played for "more talented" teams. He did! Do you deny it? Rice played for some fantastic teams....but those A's and those Yankees were better teams....no? |
