Yes, many. But try convincing the men who vote upon his candidacy. Sheesh, they're a tight-fisted, tunnel-visioned bunch.

He belongs and after this past election, l think it is safe to say he will never get in.

Yes, he does deserve to be in the HOF. He was not just a third baseman. He also played 1B, 2B, SS, LF.

You forgot to include:

Played in 8 all stars games and started 4 times at third.
1973-ML-Lou Gehrig Memorial Award

The problem is that the Cubs during that spend had not reached a playoff.

This past year was ''his year''.The new veterans committee would surely vote him in,would not they?No,they didn't.You can think it was because the committee was stacked against him,you can list all the just above average stats u like & it adds up the same - Ron Santo was not good enough to be in the HOF.There r other players who have their fans believing they deserve to be in also,but the reality is that those players r legends only to fans of that team.
l notice that u did not list Santo as being a Gold Glove winner in 1969 - that was the Cubs best year during his career ,was not it?Maybe had he won then & the Cubs ever got into the playoffs,He might be in the HOF as a player instead of as a paying customer.
Get over it Cub fans.If u elect Santo,then how about Kessinger?Or an even more obvious choice - Ferguson Arthur Jenkins?Did not Fergie win 20 or more games how many consecutive seasons?5?6? Where is the outcry for Fergie?

after Dale Murphy

Murphy:

2 time mvp
394 HR
2111 hits
7 time all star
5 gold gloves

He should be, but l do not think he will be.

Absolutely! It is a crime that he is not in the HOF.

It is over. He is not going in. Get over it...Hey, Micheal R, Fergie Jenkins is ALREADY IN the Hall of Fame. That is why there is no outcry for him.

He is the guy who ran down the field and clicked his heels after a win. Now his peers are voting him in the HOF? l think it is pay back time.

Dale Murphy belongs in their before Santo.

l can tell you this, he wo not make it in the hall as a broadcaster.

No, there is just better players on the ballot than him.

Ron Santo certainly belongs there. There is no excuse for him not to been elected years ago. Unfortunately MLB HOF will have to get the huevos to strip the voting rights from those that send in empty ballots or do not take the time to vote.

Absolutely. Ron Santo was a great player who deserves election to the Baseball Hall of Fame.

No, even the Veterans Committee did not vote him in.......
