PAT BURRELL
First Year on Ballot
PLAYING CAREER: Philadelphia Phillies (2000–2008), Tampa Bay Rays (2009–2010) and San Francisco Giants (2010–2011)
ACHIEVEMENTS: Burrell hit .253 with a surprising 292 home runs in 12 seasons with three teams. “Pat the Bat” did win two championship rings (2008 and 2010), but get this…dude went 1-for-27 (.037) in nine World Series games. Wow.
WHAT THEY’RE SAYING ON TWITTER:
how the fuck are both Pat Burrell and Matt Stairs on the HOF ballot?

HOVG THOUGHTS: “But he’s got more rings than Ted Williams and Ernie Banks combined!” Ummm…no.
