I'm surprised only 4 got in, but I think they got the right 4! Smoltz completes the big 3 of our staff in the HOF, joining Maddux and Glavine. Cox is also in, with Chipper in the near future!

Smoltz is the first pitcher in the HOF, who had the Tommy John surgery during their career.

Wow that's a pretty telling stat.

Nice link. I also believe people like Tommy John should be in the hall, he's arguably done more for the game than anyone else by coming up with the career saving procedure.
