If they let in all the Steroid cheats in the HOF, which is likely, I say yes. kairos12 Jul 2017 #3

Loved the Big Red Machine when I was a kid. Johnny Bench was my hero.

Rose not in because of the gambling

A case could be made for the shortstop Dave Concepcion

George Foster, LF, faded after he left the Reds
Caesar Geronimo, CF, had a great glove but a weak hitter
Ken Griffey, RF, had a solid career but nothing like his son

The pitching was ok, but no HOFs. Seaver came in 1977. The Reds did it with their bats and defense.
