Biggio elected to Hall of Fame!

[Mr. E]

Congrats to one of Houston's greatest professional athletes, Craig Biggio. He will, along with Randy Johnson, Pedro Martinez & John Smoltz make up the 2015 Hall of Fame class.

Still no love for Bagwell from the Baseball Writer's Association.

no doubt one of Houston's greatest professional athletes

[Mr. E]

I still wish that Nolan would have gone in as an Astro, but we can't be more proud to have a guy like Craig Biggio as the first Astro in Cooperstown.

Finally a reason to actually go there!

Very awesome news indeed for such a great player and a class act for so many years. I was always more of a Bagwell fan(and later on Fat Elvis and the Wizard) but have nothing but respect for Biggio and what he meant to the organization and the city for such a long time. I always loved how he played the game and how he never took it for granted.

Still, Bagwell belongs in the Hall right next to him and it's a shame they didn't get in together, though hopefully he will get his soon enough.

[Mr. E]

I'm really hoping that Bagwell joins Griffey & Kent in next year's class.

As for Biggio - any chance that we can get the signature helmet on permanent display in Minute Maid Park?
