Definitely Halladay should have went in as Jay, but McGriff, what makes you think he should have went in as Jay? Cause he started out with us?

He played for Toronto (1986-90), San Diego (1991-93), Atlanta (1993-97), Tampa Bay (1998-2001 and 2004), the Chicago Cubs (2001-02) and the Los Angeles Dodgers (2003). His best year were in his Atlanta time, and also that's when he won his world series, so if anything maybe he would have went in as Brave?

Yeah, I agree. His best years statistically came with the Jays, but he played more games with Atlanta, and had all of his postseason success with them including a title. If you were going to associate him with a single team, it'd likely be them.

His best Statistically season came with ATL, highest AVG. and OPS. Curious what his WAR was at age 30...either way he enjoyed his best Team success in his ATL years.

His best fWAR seasons were with the Jays, Jays, Jays and Padres, respectively. Had his highest OPS with the Braves in 1994, but that's largely a product of MLB"s run environment changing in a substantial way from the late 80s to the mid 90s: leaguewide OPS in 1994 was 68 points higher than in 1989.

McGriff’s “No Cap” made me feel happy that he even considered us. I always assumed he would go in as a Brave. Good to remember how awesome he was as a Jay… Even value for Roberto Alomar at the time.

Honestly, I would have been satisfied with either. But Cooperstown getting wishy-washy and not making those calls is something that I find grating, and we're probably going to see it more and more.

Will every Blue Jays game be available in SN NOW? - Sportsnet NOW

Will every Blue Jays game be available in SN NOW?

Sportsnet NOW is your home for streaming Blue Jays games. Users can stream games all season long, plus Blue Jays Central, other MLB matchups, the All-Star Game and Postseason.

However, MLB and AppleTV+ have a streaming rights deal that allows Apple to stream regular season games. As a result, select games every year air exclusively on AppleTV+, meaning the game is not available on Sportsnet television channels or Sportsnet NOW. Their schedule will be released throughout the season here.
