@SeanSmith162 @Patton6606Chuck @trbruce87 @BarrySchust That is what needs to happen, the hof discriminates against catchers, always has....Very shocking that T Simmons got in but again he deserved it

[Ted Bruce @TedBruce19]

@SeanSmith162 @Patton6606Chuck @BarrySchust Plus hof has 6 catchers in with less hrs than 113, At number 7, Mickey Cochrane being the most comparable at 119 hrs and a 49.8 WAR

[Ted Bruce @TedBruce19]

@SeanSmith162 @Patton6606Chuck @BarrySchust I would have take Munson over Fisk at their peak. Bench of course, was in another stratosphere. Chuck Patton must be a Redsox fan! lol

[Ted Bruce @TedBruce19]

@SeanSmith162 @Patton6606Chuck @BarrySchust in what they call now as a dead ball era, although we didn't know it at the time.

[Ted Bruce @TedBruce19]

@Patton6606Chuck @BarrySchust I saw the man play. HOF all the way. I would have taken Munson over Fisk in their prime or any other al catcher in his day. Bench of course in another stratosphere.

[Ted Bruce @TedBruce19]

@Patton6606Chuck @BarrySchust WAR isn't everything. Thurman Munson was the best or second best catcher (Fisk) in the AL for basically a decade. And his playoff stats and defense speak for themselves. Long overdue, it helps i saw him play.

@roberthilburn Fats Domino would have to be represented here somewhere.

[Ted Bruce @TedBruce19]

@ChuckFreimund And ironically enough, on a 84 mph non split-fingered fastball nonetheless

[Ted Bruce @TedBruce19]

@duane_bent @BronxZooNYY I remember it and that moment was clutch .

[Ted Bruce @TedBruce19]

@TimScoreCFP @tomanddina @BronxZooNYY J Bench is the greatest catcher of all time. No one has to be as good as Bench to be in the HOF. In his era and in the AL , i would take Munson over anyone. WAR is not as exact as you think...there are intangibles...which Munson had.

[Ted Bruce @TedBruce19]

@stevestone Well...I love you , man, but this tweet did not age well. Something is wrong here. There is way too much talent on this team for them to be playing as such. Still a month to go.. but it certainly doesn't look good.

Monkees on The Tonight Show (1969) https://t.co/X16rgWiCs3 via @YouTube @TheMickeyDolenz1

Somehow, somebody taped this off the tonight show some 50 plus years ago. I wonder how the interview with Johnny went?

[Ted Bruce @TedBruce19]

@Sut_40 Jim & Jesse McReynolds , Period.

[Ted Bruce @TedBruce19]

@Sut_40 @Cubs @WatchMarquee Nope. Get R' Done !

[Ted Bruce @TedBruce19]

@JesseRogersESPN How about getting your rich asses in seats in the same room and working out a deal.

[Ted Bruce @TedBruce19]

@CubsZone Boo Hoo. The players need to work for living at a "regular" job. They received quite a few concessions from the owners.

[Ted Bruce @TedBruce19]

@ARizzo44 Nope, love you like the brother i never had but you are wrong here. Players got most of what you wanted. 700 g minimum , 12 playoff teams, etc. Get a deal done. NOW.

[Ted Bruce @TedBruce19]

@Brewers Really...with no season...someone needs to rethink this

[Ted Bruce @TedBruce19]

@Rhino_Records @TheMonkees @TheMickyDolenz1 I remember this so well...i stayed up and watched all 45 episodes!

[Ted Bruce @TedBruce19]

@stevestone Whew...wondering how you were doing as you haven't tweeted in a while...and great to hear Mr Baseball is doing well. Let's get this season started!
