The Baseball Hall of Fame Corrected

The Baseball Hall of Fame Corrected

Who should be in the Baseball Hall of Fame? Who shouldn't? Everyone has an opinion, and everyone can conjure up a few stats or arguments for or against just about any player. It's a mess. There has to be a better way.

â€œThe Baseball Hall of Fame Correctedâ€ brings order to the chaos. It starts with specific standards based on the current composition of the Hall. Then it compares each existing Hall-of-Famer's record to the standards to determine whether he really deserves the honor. It also uses the same standards to review the credentials of each viable candidate not in the Hall.

But this is no dry recitation of stats. The book also loaded with stories, humor, and digressions into everything from psychology to American history. Do not expect each player to be treated with reverence; author Eddie Daniels has opinions and isnâ€™t afraid to share them. Inspired by the likes of Bill James and Baseball Prospectus, Daniels combines the precision of an academic with the wit of an oddball comedian.

Does Jeff Bagwell deserve the Hall? What about Curt Schilling? Did Jim Rice and Bert Blyleven deserve their selections? How do steroid accusations affect the credentials of Barry Bonds and Roger Clemens? Where does Derek Jeter stand among the all-time greats? â€œThe Baseball Hall of Fame Correctedâ€ covers it all.

Of course, â€œThe Baseball Hall of Fame Correctedâ€ reviews more than just modern players. You might learn something new about Ty Cobb or Mickey Mantle. And youâ€™ll be introduced to obscure Hall-of-Famers like Jake Beckley and Tommy McCarthy. By the end, youâ€™ll know more about baseball history than all of your friends combined.

And all players will be profiled and judged in Eddie Danielsâ€™ goofy, rambunctious style. Excitement is guaranteed. Youâ€™ll pay for the whole seat, but you should consider renting out the back half of it, because youâ€™ll only need the edge. (No refunds available for any seats or portions thereof.) â€œThe Baseball Hall of Fame Correctedâ€ is for casual fans and hard-core baseball nerds alike.

EDDIE DANIELS is well-known among his friends and family. No one else has ever heard of him. Heâ€™s written a ton, but nothing else has been published anywhere besides Web sites. But take a chance on him. Câ€™mon, itâ€™s cheap.

The reviews are in!

â€œâ€˜The Baseball Hall of Fame Correctedâ€™ is the best book Iâ€™ve ever read! And I canâ€™t read!â€ -- Eddie Daniels

â€œOnce in a generation, an author comes along who changes the face of literature about the Baseball Hall of Fame written by people named â€˜Eddie Daniels.â€™ Eddie Daniels is not that author. But while youâ€™re waiting for something better, it wouldnâ€™t kill you to buy this book.â€
-- Eddie Daniels

â€œThese book profiles are supposed to be a maximum of 4,000 characters long. At this point Iâ€™m at only 2,841. I donâ€™t think I actually have to get to 4,000, but 2,841 (now 2,910) seems too short. Itâ€™s sort of like if your professor gives you a maximum page count for a paper; you donâ€™t want to go too far below it. But Iâ€™ve already explained the book well enough, so now Iâ€™m just talking nonsense to get to a reasonable total. Dum dee dum dum dum. Scooby doobie doo. You are great, and I love you. OK, now Iâ€™m at 3,251. Thatâ€™s probably enough, right? Letâ€™s just call it at this point. See you in the book! If youâ€™ve read this far, you have an admirably high tolerance for my writing style and thus could enjoy my book! So buy it!â€
