RainesI’ll have a more detailed Hall of Fame post soon (I think Mr. Biro might as well…) but Joe Posnanski’s item today pretty much sums up my thoughts on Tim Raines:

Poz has some interesting thoughts on Jim Rice vs. Roy White – the point being that you wouldn’t think of White as being as near a good a player as Rice, but when you look deeper, the case can be made… I’m interested to see if Raines garners more support this year, without an absolute slam-dunk on the ballot.
