Piazza. biggio. pudge Rodriguez...all linked to ped use.

The key is who was nice to the baseball writers of America.

Hard to say mcgriff is better than two times mvp dale Murphy...but, they would both be in the hall of very good of guys almost good enough. Which was the tag line for guys like Conception.

Macgriff is a baseball example of the problem with the NFL HOF, too many very good players from great teams and not enough great players from good teams. Which is why I would put Murphy ahead of mcgriff.
