Garret Anderson with Neil Paine


Listen Later

Sportswriter Neil Paine joins Jim to break down the HOF candidacy of former Angels left fielder Garret Anderson. First, they cover how Anderson is the unofficial "Mr. Angel" of the Angels franchise and how Anderson, not Mike Trout or Shohei Ohtani, is the name you will find most at the top of the Angels recordbook (10:20). Next, they discuss Anderson's huge at-bats in Game 6 and 7 of the 2002 World Series, his big weekend at the Midsummer Classic in 2003, and where he ranks among the best left fielders of his era (23:15). Finally, Jim introduces the "Bobby Abreu Test" to Neil to hear his feedback (56:00), before making a final call on whether or not they believe Anderson deserves a plaque in Cooperstown (1:08:11).
