If he doesn't, it'll be the HGH that keeps him out. I guarantee that if Pettite wins 250 games, he's in, HGH or no.

i just looked at the stats and i admit that i didn't realize how similar their lifetime stats are. there was a time when shilling was dominant, but i don't think pettite was ever a dominating pitcher, except maybe in the post season. i'll stand by schilling and grudgingly include pettite. but if pettite tanks the next couple years, hes gonna hurt his chances. no one with an era over 4.00 should be in and pettite is close.
