I would say no to Omar but its much closer to me than Baines. He made only 3 All Star teams in his MANY years in baseball and was never an MVP candidate. His defense was obviously great and he was recognized for that with 11 Gold Glove Awards. At a premium spot for defense that is hard to ignore. But Ozzie Smith he wasnt and overall just not enough for me to put him in.

I think defense has a spot in the hof. If you win 10+ gold gloves and you have an decent bat, you should be a hofer.

Keith Hernandez won 11 Gold Glove Awards, an MVP, a batting title, was an All Star 5 times, and a key member of 2 World Series winners. Should he be in the HOF? Because, if you want to put Omar in then Hernandez should be in as well. Much better hitter in his prime and probably the best defensive 1B of all time. To me he has a better case for induction that Vizquel.

Ya i believe Keith should be in the hof as well. I think hes better than some current guys who are in the hof just bc they played a long time.
