Baseball Hall of Fame voting for 2019 is complete and votes are being tallied. With Edgar Martinez and Mike Mussina seemingly on their way, Baseball Bits turns its attention to the case of Larry Walker. The Larry Walker Hall of Fame case is clear in my mind. He deserves to be voted in, but even though he has made big gains this year, it will come down to 2020 to decide if he actually gets in.

This is a video about why Larry Walker should be in the Hall of Fame. It uses in-depth analytics to justify his inclusion despite the cries of LARRY WALKER COORS LARRY WALKER COORS. We compare him to a couple players, most notably Ken Griffey Jr. and the Todd Helton Hall of Fame case. The Todd Helton and Larry Walker Rockies played in offensive powerhouses, but that doesn't mean we can dismiss them entirely. This is all to say that unpacking the Coors Effect is of great important to understanding Walker's Hall of Fame case.
