Agree 100%. There is no baseball-related reason to keep him out. He was actually a late bloomer when he finally got his shot with the Philles who were awful most seasons he was there.
Disagree. 216 wins is not good enough. He belongs in the Hall of the Very Good. Never won the Cy Young. A power pitcher who only led the league in strikeouts twice. He deserves to be out.
Blyleven was better with wins and ERA, and I don't think he should be in.

Ahhh..the moron who goes for wins. I bet you were embarrassing yourself in 2018 and 2019 and saying that Jacob deGrom shouldn't have won the Cy Young too.

No he isn't clearly a top 10 pitcher of the past 40 years. Most rankings have him in that 10-20 range depending on who you are counting. There are some guys with basically no flaws (see like Randy Johnson or Greg Maddux), a few with minor (would have been nice for pedro to have 250 wins) but then you get off into judgement land. Curt was a very, very good pitcher for a long time but he was never the man the way a guy like Pedro was and he didn't rack up wins the way say Glavine did.
Realistically he is in if he wasn't a total prick. And not just because your a conservative, it doesn't mean you have to be a prick.
The first paragraph is 100% CORRECT! Pedro Martinez only had 3 more wins than Schilling, 46 fewer loses though, but his 2.93 ERA is stellar, and he WON THREE CY YOUNG AWARDS!
Regarding your second paragraph, I think it is possible Schilling would be in already not if he just weren't a prick, but if he were a truly nice and giving person, or he overcame some big personal tragedy or something like that. If he were just a neutral guy with those stats, I don't think he gets in, and I don't think he deserves to get in based only on his stats alone.

This is just bafflingly ignorant. Even with the whining ultra lefties hating anyone who thinks different from them, he still got 790% of the vote. And probably would have gotten in next year had he not withdrawn his name. And you are actually willing to embarrass yourself as to say that he wouldn't have gotten that 5% more if he were a "neutral" person?

The odd thing is, the sheer number of posts you have made shows that you think you are some sort of expert one baseball. But the content of your posts proves just the opposite.

A bland Curt Schilling is Roy Hallaway or Mike Mussina.

Halladay would not be in the HOF if he were still alive today. He might have eventually got in, but it would have taken at least several years. It took Mussina six years, and he barely got in with 77%.
