I'd like to see the standard raised. The Hall of Fame should be the best of the best. Not this guy:

Does that look like a HOFer to you? He shouldn't be.
IMO, by allowing Halladay in, you're lowering the standard. Since you don't feel like reading to understand my argument, I'll repeat it. If you don't have the typical HOF length career (he clearly doesn't) to put up the counting stats (wins, WAR, Ks, etc) then you better have a dominant peak. Relative to his peers, IMO, it's not dominant. Dominant is Pedro. Pedro should get in, despite not having a large amount of innings.
And for what it's worth, Jaffe is torn on Halladay. He also wants the standard raised.
