There's always a random element to whether or not a ball becomes a hit, but the probabilities change over time as the game evolves. Look at the old-timey baseball gloves with no pocket. Look at what the shift did. -
Right, which is why I said he “wasn’t far off”. I didn’t say he should be in. But that debate isn’t what this discussion is about. -

Considering he has the most right handed power in the organization, I sure hope so. -

I like that lineup. I wonder if Mountcaatle is coming back? -

That’s a nice lineup today. I wonder how much of that lineup you see in the playoffs? Defensively, it’s probably the best lineup we can put out there and obviously the status of Mounty matters as well but one thing I find interesting is who do you play at the second, SS and third? Mateo’s role is seemingly pinch runner but do you value his speed and defense over say the bat of Frazier? Do you want the speed off the bench or the bat? Or do you determine that you feel the moment is too big for Westburg and he is the guy off the bench, despite the good defense? -
Why should that matter for this argument? There’s still 9 men on the baseball diamond. If balls in play only become hits by random chance, then what era the game is played in shouldn’t matter. Math is math, right?

Jimmy Key wasn't that far off from the HoF? He was worth 48.9 WAR for his career, had a career ERA of 3.51 and an ERA+ of 122. He had 186 career wins and 1538 career strikeouts. What says close to HoF to you? He needed about four more excellent seasons to hit what most people consider the HoF benchmarks. Great pitcher, but come on.
