    Still stunned about Robbie's omission, Bean? I kid.

    I think with Omar's extended farewell tour he's getting so much good will and "That guy should be a hall of famer" hubbub from the announcers and media, I can see him picking up that momentum and carrying it to the voting.

    Plus he's not exactly Bonds on the likeability scaled. Crazier things have happened.

    Hey now, it's not that at all. Just a delay.

    But really, I didn't give a thought to Alomar while posting that. I too can picture Omar riding a wave of good-will into the HOF. I still think it'll be a struggle and that there's no chance in hell he's voted in on the 1st ballot, but I'm not going to bet against it happening eventually.

      I have a question. I read this earlier yesterday and it's a great story but I swear that I read a few weeks ago that Omar signed with the Twins. I don't know where I am getting this and I am a bit confused (insert smart comments here) but if it wasn't Omar that signed with the Twins, can someone enlighten me as to if it was another former Indian that is going to Minnisota or has my brain finally frozen? 😵

      Not even sure if I shoulda posted this in this thread but I stuck it in anywho.

        You're thinking of Rich Yett.

            Well don't I feel like a dick. I was kidding about Yett - he was drafted by the Twins, appeared in one game and was then moved to the Tribe in the Blyleven deal. Spent four fun-filled years with the good guys before finishing his career in Minnesota.

            Was just trying to have a little fun.

            The real man you're looking for is Dan Schatzeder.

                    Well, I went snooping on the Twins website and realized where my confusion occured. It was a FORMER Indian that the Twins signed. My bad. it's Jim Thome. There, I feel better.

                      Oh no you don't. fool me once shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. I don't think the Twins wanna sign a 56 year old man. And besides, Schatzeder signed with the Indians Feb. 9, 1988 and was released by the Tribe on June 22 of the same year. Then he signed with the Twins on June 27th of '88. (She says hoping not to look like an idot with egg on her face).
