Description

Jim is joined by author and sports historian Clayton Trutor to discuss the hall of fame candidacy of former MLB first baseman Mo Vaughn. First, Clayton and Jim cover Vaughn's batting stance and his reputation as one of the most feared hitters of the 1990s (11:25). Then, they discuss the 1995 AL MVP race, the best first basemen of his era, and how he dominated some of the top pitchers in baseball history (16:49). Finally, they decide just how poor of a defender Mo really was (46:02), before making a final call on whether or not Vaughn belongs in the HOF (52:51).
