Hall of Fame - Please Vote!!

boblight24 · 05-17-2007, 11:46 AM

I have been playing OOTP for years now and I finally found some MLB Rosters that I like and after some tweaking (to make the game play like I want) I have started on an MLB Dynasty and I need the help of the OOTP Community on a decision. I have created a PowerPoint presentation (for my own benefit because I have too much time on my hands) for all the actual Hall of Famers (including Pete Rose). I of course have the players and which teams they entered the hall playing for (i.e Yount with the Brewers and Winfield with the Padres), but I have a problem on my hands. It is easy to chose teams for players like Cal Ripken and Tony Gwynn, but with this year's class I need your help. I have already put Roger Clemens in with a Red Sox uniform, but please help me decide with the next two:

Greg Maddux:

Chicago Cubs Resume:
133-112
3.61 ERA
1,305 K's
47 CG
298 GS
14 SHO
2,016 IP
9 1/2 Seasons
1 Cy Young Award
5 NL Gold Gloves
2x NL All-Star

Atlanta Braves Resume:
194-88
2.63 ERA
1,828 K's
61 CG
363 GS
21 SHO
2,526 IP
11 Seasons
3 Cy Young Awards
10 NL Gold Gloves
6x NL All-Star
1 World Series Title

Randy Johnson

Seattle Mariners Resume
130-74
3.42 ERA
2,162 K's
51 CG
266 GS
19 SHO
1,838 IP
1 AL Cy Young
5x AL All-Star

Arizona Diamondbacks Resume
103-49
2.65 ERA
1,832 K's
36 CG
192 GS
14 SHO
1,389 IP
4 NL Cy Young Awards
5x NL All-Star
1 World Series Title
1 World Series co-MVP Award

I will watch the votes through this weekend (5/13) and then make a decision. Thanks!
I have fixed the poll where you can vote more than once, so please choose one for Maddux and one for Johnson, Thanks!!!

Braves, D-Backs.

Easy picks on both sides. IMO only Seattle/Chicago fans could disagree.

Nope, I think Chicago fans would say that Mad Dog should go in as a Brave. It's where he spent the bulk of his career...and it's a good slap in the face for the Cubs. They should have never let him get out of town....

I am a Mariner fan, and Johnson should go in as an Expo

. Barring that, as a Diamondback.

But when you get to Jr. Griffey, a Mariner, no debate on that one in my head.

Braves and D-Backs. No brainers.
