Only a few years back they had the best pitching staff I ever remember with Zito and others. Didnt win anything with them.

Vogel-- Do you think Tom Glavine deserved to be in the HOF?

Maddux for sure but dont know if Glavine did enough to be placed ahead of so many good players.

Yea, I think Glavine deserved to get at some point. He won 300 games and won 20 games 5 times. Two time CY Young winner. Not to mention he was a big part of the Braves being in the Playoffs like 12 years in a row or whatever crazy amount it was.

You are right saying he definitely benefited from being in a rotation with Maddux and Smoltz for a long time. But in baseball even if you benefited from being on great teams. For a starting pitcher winning 300 games over a career is a lock for the Hall of Fame.

He's a 2x Cy Young Winner (and finished 2nd to the Cy Young winner twice) and was the MVP of the Braves only World Series title during that stretch.

He was probably the 3rd best out of the 3 Braves stars, but that just speaks volumes on how great Smoltz and Maddux were.

Definitely a Hall of Famer.

You go to the stadium An0ny often?

Yes a couple times, not as much as I would like.

My ideal thing to do is get home from work, sit back and enjoy the game on TV. I enjoy listening to the announcers, especially Ron Darling and Gary Cohen.

The joke around here is the Yankees have the best team but horrible announcers, while the Mets are just the opposite
