Does Bill James belong in the Hall of Fame?
I've been reading from his yearly abstracts as I bought several on eBay. The foundation he laid is unbelievable. Should he be in the hall for contributions to the game?

Yes, but the self-important alcoholics that make the decision will never do it.

Even as someone who sometimes feels there is an over-emphasis on sabermetrics, I can't deny Bill James has had a huge effect on the game of baseball. He should be in the Hall.
