An observation regarding Sammy Sosa

[Kid]

<!--quoteo(post=80264:date=Feb 21 2010, 11:22 PM:name=Dave)-->QUOTE (Dave @ Feb 21 2010, 11:22 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}><!--quotec-->Fred McGriff has a higher OPS+ than Sosa, does that make the Crime Dog more HOF-worthy than Sosa?

Runs created (after all, you dont win a baseball game without scoring a run or two)
Sosa 1625
McGwire 1529

And yes, I do believe that Sammy being considered one of the 10 best players in his league more time than McGwire means something.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Taking top 10 is totally arbitrary. They track MVP up to top 25. McGwire made that list 11 times, compared to 9 for Sosa. McGwire made 12 all star teams, Sosa made 7.

I don't know who was better between them, but it doesn't matter. They're both cheaters and both deserve to never make the HOF.
