    Ron was the best. I grew up and really started following the cubs ( and disliking the cards) about the time he retired. Ron deserves to in the hall. Every time I see the veterans commite vote announcement I pray that he will be on the list. The numbers speak for themself’s and realize how bad the cubs were back then. I hope that I live to see the day when two of the greatest Cubs (Ernie being the other one) are both in the hall together.

    Ron Santo belongs in the baseball Hall of Fame.
    His stats, his spirit, and his example serve as a great inspiration for anyone who plays baseball or enjoys the game.
    Please put Ron Santo in the Hall of Fame now, and enable him to enjoy it, and his fans to celebrate with him this long overdue honor.
    Thank you!

  5. Terry Escott says:

    What is going to take for baseball to recognize Ron Santo? Even if one is to fails in evaluating his numbers, the contributions of Santo to the game beyond the diamond are incalculable. His determination and character are the embodiment of baseball and the ideals that it professing to uphold as the essence of the game. Those that truly love baseball are grieved at the oversight and want it corrected. NOW.

  6. Shawn Travis says:

    Let Santo in…His numbers speak for themselves…If anyone deserves this well over due honor it is Santo!

  7. Dave Cohen says:

    I’m a Sox fan who grew up hating the Cubs, but Ron Santo was one of the 2 best 3rd basemen of his time and should be in the Hall of Fame. Switch teams with Santo and Brooks Robinson, and Santo would have been elected years ago. Compare the stats between the two of them.

  8. Terry Stone says:

    I go all the way back to Roy Smalley Sr.; Dee Fonday, Hank Sauer, Ralph Kiner, etc. It’s a travesty not to have Ron in the Hall.

  9. Scott Lewis says:

    Put Ron Santo in!

  10. Tim Corcoran says:

    Ron belongs amongst the best that baseball has to offer because I can honestly say that Ron Santo is the definition of what a hall of famer is. His stats aside, the respect and love of the game and years of service that he has brought this town, team and game nationwide should be enough alone. Not to mention the fact that he was a hall of fame caliber ball player. There is nobody out there who deserves it more than this man. Do the right thing and honor the career of a baseball legend.

  11. Judi Sparks says:

    Ron Santo was one of the best third basemen of his generation and deserves to join other Cubs from his time in the Hall. Cub and Santo fans everywhere support his ongoing candidacy to join Billy Williams and Ernie Banks among baseball’s elite.

    Thank you for your consideration.

  12. Art Vermette says:

    Ron should be in the Hall of Fame he was a great fielding third baseman and was very good hitter and a great team player.

  13. Rich Dalka says:

    Yes, he deserves it. How many other hall members played with diabetes?

  14. kyle kottra says:

    Ronny should be in the hall no question one of the best 3rd basemen to play the game.

  15. i think baseball fans allover the world want to see Ron in the baseball hall of fame
    Ron you got my vote

  16. Sean says:

    As a 14 year old, all I have grown up with are steroid users and bad teams. However I have always had an interest in baseball history, and it’s obvious that Ron Santo not only should be a hall of famer, but should have been a first ballot electee. This is due to the classic Brooks Robinson debate. But beyond that, after his career as a player ended, Ron has done things that far surpass the things he did as a player. He does extensive work with diabetes charity, he is a fantastic broadcaster, and is a great person to everyone, but especially his fans.

  17. Bob Gross says:

    Ron belongs in the Hall of Fame!!!

  18. William Reflects says:

    ’m a phillies fan who grew up hating the Cubs, but Ron Santo was one of the 2 best 3rd basemen of his time and should be in the Hall of Fame. Switch teams with Santo and Brooks Robinson, and Santo would have been elected years ago. Compare the stats between the two of them.

  19. Corey says:

    Ron Santo not only put up impressive numbers, but did ir as a diabetic too. Whoever doesn’t vote for him is nuts.

  20. Jason Cairo says:

    Put Ron in!!! The guy should have been in years ago. Do the right thing!

  21. Jeremy Masterson says:

    Ron Santo absolutely deserves to be in the hall of fame. The stats speak for themselves and not to mention the fact that he played with diabetes. I just think of what he could of done had he been in perfect health. He could have let on that he had diabetes but given his personality and desire to be the best I believe that he wouldn’t have wanted anyone to treat him any different. He is already a hall of famer as far as I’m concerned but give him what he has earned and put him in the hall with all the Cub legends.

  22. Michael says:

    Santo should definitely be in the Hall. Look at the stats.

  23. Clayton Parker says:

    I feel that Ron Santo deserves to be in the hall of fame. The stats he put up in his career are on a par with the best of the other third basemen that are already in the hall. This in it self is a major accomplishment because he played his entire career while he suffered from type I diabetes. Something he kept secret for fear that baseball would not allow him to play if it was revealed. as a diabatic myself Ron has always been a possitive inspiration to me.

  24. Geri Thomas says:

    I grew up not far from Wrigley Field. As a pre-teen and teenager, my summers were spent mostly at Wrigley Field. At this time, in the 60’s, a fan was able to walk directly up to the players in the parking lot after the garm. I was blessed to have had my picture taken with Ron. He was an exciting player because he loved and still loves the game. To have endured the health problems he has, and still be so enthusiastic about your work, I am proud to be living in the same universe as Ron. I moved to San Antonio 10 years ago, but I get back to Chitown every year and spend lots of money to be able to attend a Cubbies game, and also to listen to Ron on the radio.
    We should all be able to enjoy our “JOB” as much as he does. Vote Ron IN!!!!!

  25. Dooley says:

    I come from a family of Cub fans, I grew up with the Hawk, Ryno, Sut, Wild Thing, & Zim. I did, however, hear all the old stories about Cubs past & Ronnie was one of my favorites. Now traveling between eastern Iowa and mid Missouri, Ron & Pat are what gets me through long trips. The vets committee needs to get him in before the broadcasters do, although both are a great honor, I feel the former would mean a great deal more to him. I suppose I could mention his career numbers, but they, like everything else Ron has accomplished throughout his life, speak for themselves.

  26. Rick Natalino says:

    Ron Santo should have been in years ago!! One of the greatest third basemen ever!! And a great person! We love you Ron!!!

  27. Carol Swanson says:

    I love Ron Santo! He is one of the best third basemen ever!! He deserves to be in the Hall of Fame!!

  28. I think that Ron Santo is the greatest overall third baseman of all time. Every year that I don’t here his name it just makes me madder and madder.Those are my stances on the Ron Santo/Hall of Fame situation.
