I don't normally listen to Mike and Mike in the Morning on ESPN radio. Today, I stumbled into the show and they were discussing whether the Los Angeles Dodgers going bankrupt is an embarrassment to baseball. Mike Greenberg pointed out that if you look in the record books, you see the all-time leader in hits (Pete Rose) and the all-time leader in home runs (Barry Bonds) are not in the baseball Hall of Fame. He then made the case that since these two all-time greats are not in the Hall of Fame that MLB should be embarrassed.
Barry Bonds last played in 2007. The rules state that a player must be retired for five years. Therefore, Bonds won't be eligible for the Hall of Fame until 2013. How could it be an embarrassment that a non-eligible player is not in the Hall of Fame?
Mike and Mike need to do some more prep work before going on the air or maybe they just don't like Barry Bonds.
