Berkman and Oswalt retire as Astros
Apr 07, 2014
Published in
Not in Hall of Fame News
The Houston Astros have not had a whole lot to celebrate in the past few years, but this past Saturday the franchise resigned to a one day contract, Lance Berkman and Roy Oswalt so that they could both retire as Astros. Both Berkman and Oswalt were at their best playing for Houston, and it is fitting that they retired together as they debuted for the team two years apart.
Berkman’s tenure in Houston was from 1999 to 2010 where he represented the Astros in five All Star Games and finished third in MVP voting twice. His keen eye earned him seven seasons with an On Base Percentage over four, and overall he had a .410 Percentage in that category as a Houston Astro. Lance did not jest get on base, but he drove in a lot of runs too, as he had 1,090 RBIs, including winning the title in 2002 and had 326 Home Runs. Berkman’s bWAR as a Houston Astro is a solid 48.0 and overall is a fringe candidate for the Baseball Hall of Fame (well, maybe a fringe candidate to get the five percent needed to stay on the ballot anyway.)
Pitcher, Roy Oswalt who spent 2001 to midway through the 2010 season, joins Berkman. Oswalt did not win a Cy Young, but he was in the top five in voting five times in Houston and posted a 143 and 82 record with 1,593 Strikeouts. His bWAR as an Astro was an excellent 45.5.
We are interested to see if they will retire the numbers of Berkman and Oswalt in the future.

As we like to do often here at Notinhalloffame.com, we like to keep you aware of what we are working on in the coming weeks.
This weekend the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame will be announcing their 2014 Class and the WWE Hall of Fame will be inducting their 2014 Class. As you can expect we will unveil new rankings for both the Basketball and WWE lists. The WWE revisions are being worked on now, and we hope to have them up by the end of April. The Basketball revisions will be worked on shortly after and should be up by the middle of May.
We are also working on two more projects. We have already spoken of the “Fictitious Rock and Roll Hall of Fame” which will take on the same concept as the “Fictitious Athlete Hall of Fame”. This will be ready to launch by the end of April.
We are also in the early stages of looking at each major North American Franchise and ranking them on how they honor the players who have passed through their door. Basically, retired numbers, rings of honor and their own respective Halls of Fame.

Buffalo Sabres to retire Dominik Hasek's number
Mar 29, 2014
Published in
Not in Hall of Fame News
It was not all that long ago when the Buffalo Sabres announced that Dominik Hasek would be joining their Hall of Fame. The organization has now decreed that the Czech born Goalie will have his number 39 retired next season. He will become the seventh player to have this honor in Buffalo, as he joins Gilbert Perreault, Rick Martin, Rene Robert, Tim Horton, Danny Gare and Pat LaFontaine.
Hasek won two Hart Trophies and five Vezina Trophies as a member of the Buffalo Sabres and was the Goalie who carried the team to the Stanley Cup Finals, though they were unable to unseat the Dallas Stars.
Although Hasek’s departure from Buffalo was acrimonious, all fences have been mended and the greatest netminder in Sabres history will rightfully have his number raised to the rafters.
Hasek is eligible for the Hockey Hall of Fame this year, and we have him ranked number one on our list of those to consider for enshrinement.
