Best of luck to him and Griffey Jr in their post playing days. HOF guys both of ‘em, no doubt about it. Will Lofton get in? Plenty of doubt. Anyhow, hope they get nice offices with some sun comin in; easier to snooze those long spring days away.

If he ever goes in, he goes as an Indian. There is no debate.

I would love to see him in the HOF. Good guy, great player, the guy even finished college (from what I gather from bits and pieces). Dominating leadoff man who I think should be in (along with Raines).

Also, the dude consistently rakes for me in Baseball Mogul

Not sure yet about Lofton but he deserves a real look.

Kenny is one of my 2 or 3 favorite Indians’ ever (Insert Crazy Horse joke here) and I’m excited to have him involved in the organization again. If no team will let him help by actually playing, this is the next best thing.

I’d likely say no, given that Raines isn’t getting any love, Lofton probably won’t either.

Reset his Cooperstown clock, give the BBWAA a chance to appreciate how great he really was.
