Today, on the website, Ustream.com, Sosa was asked if he felt that he and/or Mark McGwire should be inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame he answer simply “I think so” and that “time will determine everything” and that he does not want to seek any controversy. We are not sure if he had an interpreter with him when he said it…..Our retro joke aside, neither he nor McGwire were even close on this year’s HOF ballot.

As talented as he was classy, Musial spent his entire 22 year with the St. Louis Cardinals where he won three MVPs and three World Series. Musial was one of those rare players who can be considered among the best players in Baseball history without generating much of a counter argument. Along with the accolades mentioned earlier, Musial won seven…
