643 Sports: Lou Piniella Hall of Fame or No?

[FedEx227]

We want your guys thoughts on Lou Piniella the manager in the Hall of Fame? Initial thoughts?

He's in the top 15 in wins all time, has a World Series, multiple playoff apperances. Do you guys feel he's a lock? Should go in? Shouldn't?

 

[Got teeth? Keith doesn't.]

probably, he used to be a great manager.

 

[DewsSox79]

yes he should

 

[Jntg4]

He was a great player too, though lack of power may mean that he may not be able to get in as a player, but he definitely should as a manager.

 

[FedEx227]

He'll never get in as a player, yeah, that's a no brainer.

 

[EnjoyYourTiger]

Yes, probably as a manager. Although he did have a pretty good career as a player, as well.

A no doubt HOF as a manger.

Should he and will he are 2 different questions. I tend to lean towards not putting him into the hall. WHile he ahs won a lot of games and does have a World Series to his name, his list of failures is just as long (I know you lose more than youwin but there were failures that nag at my thought process and not enough Titles to ease that, and i'm not just counting with the Cubs). In answer to will he, I do believe that he will.

 

[DewsSox79]

Yeah, he gets in.

for sure!

A no doubt HOF as a manger.
