Anyone think Goldschmidt qualifies for the coveted Red Jacket in St. Louis.
Won the MVP
Had a lot of nice seasons.
But in all honesty, it wasn't quite good enough was it.
Maybe if they had won a WS.
Then I could see it.

I think he will end up getting one because the fans tend to have a recency bias. If he goes on the ballot in say the next decade he will be more fresh in peoples minds and probably get a more popular vote.
I personally probably wouldn't vote for him because he wasn't here all that long. Granted the MVP moves the needle. However, i wouldn't be upset if he did get in

Of course he will. He's got, what, 15 years in the majors? Six with the Cardinals? Borderline HOFer?
Yes, he'll be a Cardinal HOFer.

I'd be okay with giving him that status if we had won.Adam2 wrote: ↑21 Jul 2025 13:53 pm I think he will end up getting one because the fans tend to have a recency bias. If he goes on the ballot in say the next decade he will be more fresh in peoples minds and probably get a more popular vote.

But we were okay for most of his tenure here, but okay isn't good enough.
So, no. I agree, No.

More than some that are on there now. So Les say 5 years from now who will be left when the team has been bad? Lean years ahead

Hrabosky deserves it for nothing less than his attitude.
I'd vote him in.

Re: Anyone think Goldschmidt qualifies for the coveted Red Jacket in St. Louis.
Dude, he was part of a historic team.
They won [shirt], you know.
He was a beast in the playoffs.
That [shirt] matter bro.
But like Rock said, he's a HOFer.
That might solidify it.

Get in line behind Steve Carlton who actually won something during his time in St. Louis. Two World Series, one World Championship.
