Pete Rose Says David Ortiz Isn’t A Hall Of Famer Because Of Hit Total

Most people would agree that David Ortiz is a future Hall of Famer.

The Boston Red Sox’s designated hitter is in his 20th and final big league season and is putting up the best numbers of his career. He’s leading the league in doubles, on-base percentage, slugging percentage and OPS. No player has ever led baseball in those categories during their final season.

Given his terrific final year, his career numbers are getting better by the day: .286 average, 2,400 hits, 618 doubles, 525 home runs, 1,713 RBIs and a .931 OPS.

Hall of Fame worthy, right? Not according to Pete Rose.
