gold star for USAHOF

Omar Vizquel to the Indians HOF



The Cleveland Indians have announced that former Shortstop, Omar Vizquel, will become the 40th member of their club’s Hall of Fame. He will not be going in alone as they will posthumously induct long time broadcaster, Jimmy Dudley.


Vizquel played for the Indians between 1994 and 2004. He was named to three All Star Games and won eight Gold Glove Awards while playing in Cleveland. He would have a WAR of 30.1 with 1,616 Hits and 279 Stolen Bases there.

He may be a fringe Cooperstown Hall of Fame player, but he does deserve merit in the Cleveland Indians Hall of Fame and we congratulate him on this accolade.

A ceremony for Vizquel and Dudley will take place on June 21st, prior to their game against the Detroit Tigers.
