Will Carlos Beltran make the HoF?

Bronson Arroyo was recently elected to the Reds Hall of Fame, and deservedly so. But he doesn’t belong in Cooperstown.
If Beltran gets in, someone should hide just beyond the tree line at the back of the Clark Sports Center lawn and bang a trash can during his induction speech.

I think he has a solid resume for it, but I think the old banging scandal will keep him out for years at minimum.
That is my feeling. He'll have to wait a year or two, but the Astros scandal certainly didn't have the shelf life that steroids did.
It didn’t, but I think Beltran will pay some added price - he was one of, if not THE ringleader and he’s the one guy who hasn’t been back to a job in baseball. He might wind up being the one guy that bears all the stench from it.
A lot of guys had their farm years in KC. It’s a great place to develop and then move on to win.

How much of that money was spent on personal protection and therapy?
He also smelled much better in KC than in STL. Smells like absolutely anus in STL, amirite @St. Louis Hawk ???
KC stunk during Carlos 7 seasons there. One 83-79 season, the rest all well below .500. Lost over 97 games 5 times...
Naw son, Royals gonna lock his ass up next year.
I know son, I was alive for those year beavis!
Back on topic, he should get in. He was better than Andre Dawson, Billy Williams and Tony Perez - all in...
I’m sure you have smelled more assholes than me, so I’ll take your word on it!
I thought you profess to having some baseball knowledge, not just a Cubby homer. Guess not. He doesn't compare with these Hall of Famers....?

Of course he could. You forget the Bethlehem-Babylon World Series of 29 AD where JC hit a bases empty grand slam. It capped a miracle comeback for the ages...
