Jim is joined by author Dr. Paul Semendinger to break down the career and HOF candidacy of former MLB third baseman Graig Nettles. First, they cover the various characters of the Bronx Zoo and whether Nettles is the greatest 3B in Yankees franchise history (7:58). Next, they walk through Nettles' performance in the 1981 ALCS, why he reminds us a bit of Brooks Robinson, and where he ranks among the best 3B of his era (19:48). Finally, they discuss the significance of Nettles' low career batting average and on-base percentage (49:16), before making a final call on whether Nettles belongs in the Baseball Hall of Fame (1:01:46).
