About this listen

This week we discuss expansion of the HOF to include players from International competition. Many have suggested adding big stars from leagues like the NPB, but do we support the notion or even understand it? For our This Week In Baseball, we discuss the Braves trying to hold Henry Aaron back from playing in an effort to have him hit 715 at home. Do we think this harmless or find something more sinister in the attempt?

Our Hall of Famer this week is outfielder Chick Hafey. He had a very good peak, but is that good enough or is he Charlie Keller part 2? In our singlular parting shot his week we discuss the looming CBA expiration and what effects it could have on the future of baseball.

Enjoy our new crop of weekly commercials with a Field of Dreams MLB ad, Ozzie Smith for Atari Baseball, and a 2017 MLB season preview!

Please join us as we discuss baseball topics and we continue our mission to make The Hall small. We hope you'll enjoy the ride.
