The Corridor of Fame candidacy of MLB nice Roger Clemens has simply acquired a presidential endorsement.
“I performed Golf yesterday with the Nice Roger Clemens and his son, Kacy. Roger Clemens was simply one of many few Biggest Pitchers of All Time, profitable 354 Video games, the Cy Younger Award seven instances (A File, by so much!), and performed in six World Sequence, profitable two! He was second to Nolan Ryan in most strikeouts, and he ought to be within the Baseball Corridor of Fame, NOW!” President Trump wrote on Fact Social.
“Folks assume he took medication, however nothing was confirmed. He by no means examined optimistic, and Roger, from the very starting, completely denies it. He was simply as nice earlier than these misguided prices have been leveled at him. That rumor has gone on for years, and there was no proof in any way that he was a ‘druggie.’”
Trump confused that he didn’t need to see Clemens find yourself in a scenario like that of MLB hit king Pete Rose, who was reinstated after his dying.
“That is going to be like Pete Rose the place, after over 4,000 Hits, they wouldn’t put him within the Corridor of Fame till I spoke to the Commissioner, and he promised to take action, but it surely was primarily a promise not stored as a result of he solely ‘opened it up’ when Pete died and, even then, he mentioned that Pete Rose solely received into the combination due to DEATH,” Trump wrote. “We aren’t going to let that occur within the case of Roger Clemens. 354 Wins — Put him in NOW. He and his nice household shouldn’t be pressured to endure this ‘stupidity’ any longer!”
Clemens has 354 MLB wins below his belt, and his 4,672 strikeouts are second all-time.
Nonetheless, what would usually be a shoo-in first-ballot Corridor of Fame file of feat has been marred by allegations stemming from Clemens’ title being talked about within the Mitchell Report, the 20-month investigation into steroid and human progress hormone (HGH) abuse in MLB spearheaded by former Democrat Senator George J. Mitchell that was launched in 2007.
