Indeed he was and he more than deserves the HOF.
I was merely responding to Mike/Harley's post about him being the greatest ever.
Even with the accolades, etc., he still isn't top 25, arguable on top 50.
Plainly put, if I'm fielding a 25-man roster (I know they are now 26) or even a 40-man September roster of all-time players, Rose wouldn't be on either of them.
Rose would make the perfect bench player on an all time team. You have a 200 hit a season player that can play 1B, 2B, 3B, LF, and RF at anytime. Late in games, he could shift positions if injury or to save a certain PH. He wasn’t a good guy but the dude always gave it his all to win.
