I will, for one nanosecond, forgive Joe Morgan's moronic commentaries at Cubs games, in light of this report
| Quote: | If it were solely up to Joe Morgan, the Veterans Committee would vote Ron Santo and Maury Wills into the Hall of Fame.
"I can't really give you a 'why' (Santo has not been voted in yet)," Morgan told us before broadcasting Sunday night's Cubs- Phillies game for ESPN. "I can only tell you what I have said before when people ask me: I get a vote in the Veterans Committee. The first name I put down is Maury Wills. I'll just tell you that. Then I put Ron Santo's name down second. I voted for Ron every time; I voted for Maury Wills every time I had a vote."
"When you played against the Cubs, Ron Santo was one of the guys you had to stop," said Morgan, a Hall of Fame second baseman. "You look at his numbers (342 homers, 5 Gold Gloves, 9 All-Star appearances) during his career all of those years I played against him … he was the best third baseman." |
