Hall of Fame Induction: Who Deserved It Most - Ichiro, Sabathia, or Wagner? 

The recent Hall of Fame elections have sparked a lot of debate, especially with Ichiro Suzuki, CC Sabathia, and Billy Wagner being inducted. Ichiro's near-unanimous vote raises an interesting question: what does it take to achieve unanimous status in the Hall of Fame? With Ichiro falling just one vote short, who do you think is the most deserving player to receive a unanimous vote in the future?

On the flip side, Billy Wagner's long journey to the Hall is a testament to the complexities of evaluating relief pitchers. His induction after a decade of waiting prompts us to consider: should the Hall of Fame have a different standard for relievers compared to starters? Is Wagner's postseason performance a valid reason for hesitation, or should we focus solely on regular-season excellence?

And what about CC Sabathia? His career was marked by durability and dominance, but does his late-career decline affect his legacy? How do you weigh longevity against peak performance when discussing Hall of Fame credentials?

Lastly, with the Dodgers making moves to sign Martín Pérez and Kirby Yates, what does this say about their strategy moving forward? Are they gearing up for a championship run, or are they simply looking to bolster their roster depth?

Let’s dive into these topics! What are your thoughts on the Hall of Fame voting process, the criteria for induction, and the current moves in MLB?
