On this episode of the Replacement Level Podcast Grantland’s Jonah Keri and I discuss the baseball Hall of Fame, the “steroid era”, and what’s next with advanced metrics. We also hit on why some players get overvalued and undervalued throughout their careers, re-evaluated the accomplishments of several players who played in the early 1900′s, and compared the ethical differences between modern athletes who used steroids to players of the past who used amphetamines. We also discussed several retired players who are being snubbed by the Hall of Fame voting process, players like Alan Trammell, Tim Raines, Jeff Bagwell, and Joe Torre.
