Well he wanted to go in as a White Sock. But I guess MLB wants to acknowledge the history of the Expos in some manner.
Cub Roy. He want to go in as a Cub. The part I don't get is they don't consult the inductee? Seems like they didn't even ask him what he wanted.
They used to be able to until it was found out that the Tampa Bay Devil Rays put a bonus in Wade Boggs deal when he signed with them that he'd earn extra money if he agreed to enter the HOF as a Devil Ray.
He's going to be in the HOF. Who cares as what team he'll go in for. Pete Rose can't even get in and if he did I doubt he would care for what team at this point.
