Is he a HOF'er? Would he have been had he not been involved with HGH?

He's not a hall of famer. He spent the majority of his career with the team that had the most wins in that time period, and he only finished with 240. His career ERA of 3.88 is nothing special. He was a good pitcher, but not HOF.

Pettitte was a pretty crafty pitcher for a pretty long time.....admire how well he did without having dominant stuff.

He has the most post season wins because of the expanded playoffs. For historical comparison, World Series wins is what needs to be compared.

really good pitcher, but never really a very top of the rotation kind of guy. not a hall of famer, but a great career.

Baseball HOF remains the most exclusive club.


Pettitte......No, great player, but not HOF'er. His association with HGH certainly does not help his case, as it is clear that all Performance Enhancer's are given the stop sign....
