The hall isn't exactly made up of saints. So I doubt that one comment keeps him out.

I had never even heard about this before, and I'm a Cubs fan. So I'd bet most of the voters never heard about it. Especially because it happened ten years ago.

I'll echo what has already been said. Good solid player. Not great. Great swing, loved watching him bat. In my mind probably underrated. Always seemed to be overshadowed by other players (Sandberg, Dawson, Sosa).
