I was listening to Mike and Mike this morning and a couple of other people here at work were too, and we got to discussing: Which current pitchers will make the Hall of Fame. Mike and Mike automatically included Clemens, Johnson, Maddux, and Rivera. The ones they were discussing were: Pedro, Mussina, Schilling, Glavine, Smoltz. I don't know why they were discussing Pedro, but they were (I think it's because his win total isnt that high)

Here are each person's credentials (through 2005)

Pedro: 197-84 record, 2.72 ERA (half AL, half NL), 1.021 WHIP, 2861 K's. 1 World Series, 3 Cy Young's.

Mussina: 224-127, 3.64 ERA, 1.181 WHIP, 2400 K's, 0 World Series or Cy Young's

Schilling: 192-131, 3.40 ERA (13 full seasons in NL, 4 in AL), 1.126 WHIP, 2832 K's, 2 World Series, 0 Cy Young's

Glavine: 275-184, 3.44 ERA (all NL), 1.302 WHIP, 2350 K's, 1 World Series, 2 Cy Young

Smoltz: 177-128, 3.26 ERA, 1.167 WHIP, 154 Saves, 2567 K's, 1 World Series, 1 Cy Young

I think Pedro is a definite, Glavine will get to 300 wins, so he'll get in (he's currently at 286), Smoltz should get in, with Schilling and Mussina as borderline candidates. I'd say Schilling gets in, and Mussina is one of the best pitchers to be left out.

Thoughts?
