Gossage is in.
Looks like Gossage is the only one.

Always looking for game used bats from Andre Dawson, Ryne Sandberg, Mark Grace, Jody Davis, Shawon Dunston, Jerome Walton, Rick Sutcliffe, and Greg Maddux. Preferably CUBS era bats.

Re: Gossage is in.
Good for the Goose!! He was one of the original, dominant closers and his enshrinement is well deserved.
I have always hated the Red Sox, but Jim Rice should be in too. From the mid 1970s to the early/mid 1980s, you'd be hard pressed to find a better hitting outfielder. I hope he makes the cut next year.

Re: Gossage is in.
I am a huge Dawson fan and know he is on the fence, but think the way he handled going to the Cubs and what he did his first year there is worthy of HOF mention, and if it wasn't for bad knees, I feel he would be a shoe-in. Anyway, congrats to Goose and good luck to Jim Rice for next year!

I can't believe Raines, Trammel, and Concepcion got more votes than Mattingly !

Don Mattingly is a #1 select in the New York Yankee Hall of Fame. He is loved by Yankee fans.

Re: Gossage is in.
I'm not as big of a fan. This Cubbie fan remembers too many hanging pitches. I'm glad for him, though. Originally Posted by reed1216

Someone must have owed him a favor. He was a tough kid when he was on...but not worthy of a HOF vote. Originally Posted by XPFO
