Congraturations Joe Mauer! I'm Yankee fan but You became one of my favorite catchers when you were a rookie. and Now you are a legend! Time flies so fast. Thank you for being in my old memories Joe
Such a class act. Asa Tigers fan, I will miss watching guys like him.
Joe Mauer will always be a legend in Minnesota. Not only for his incredible baseball talent, but for his loyalness to Twins fans and his genuine character he showed his entire career
Congratulations Joe
Great Minnesota Twins player, but he is NOT a MLB HOFer! but have fun "white" middle-america!
@@SilFord-o9fyou’re funny
Why not a Hall of famer?@@SilFord-o9f
@@SilFord-o9f you hate whitey, don’t you? How’s your credit rating?
there was one highlight, its not even an impact play, or a play thats in the stats where he was catching, and the ball gets thrown right to the backstop on a pitch, and Joe just snags that rocket at the plate, no looks behind his back was sooooo smooth. cool if they would have found that one lol
Baseball needs more Joe Mauers.
Well right now we got Adley. Pretty darn close imo
not really?@@austin8783
Absolutely
Thought they said that about wieters?
@@AndrewBieganski sure did. But at this point Adley has already looked better than Wieters did at any point of his career. It's all about staying healthy now
What's crazy is that Joe Mauer was the USA Today High School Player of the Year in 2000 as a quarterback who committed to play at Florida State.
USA Today high school player of the year for baseball and football,still the only person to win the award for both sports
That beautiful inside-out swing is now enshrined! Congrats, Joe!
ずっとイチローのライバルでしたね。
イチローから首位打者を何度も奪って小憎たらしい存在だったけど、貴方の素晴らしいバットコントロールは今も覚えてます。
有資格1年目での殿堂入り、おめでとうございます♪
来年、イチローは初挑戦で殿堂入りするだろう。それも満場一致でなければなりません！
ごめんなさい、これは翻訳です =)
Casuals who only like long balls don’t know ball. Professional baseball writers know ball. 1st ballot HOF. Maybe the greatest catcher in MLB history
Perfectly said
Not a first ballot hall of famer
@@soarinskies1105 Well you’re wrong because he is. Just read the video title.
@@soarinskies1105 the facts say otherwise lol
@@soarinskies1105only catcher with 3 batting titles which is absolutely UNHEARD OF, 5x silver slugger, MVP, 3 time gold glove, ended his career with a over .300 average. Greatest pure hitter from the catcher position.
You obviously don’t know ball, and never watched Joe Mauer play at all.
a classic lefty swing, what an underrated legend
So deserved. So proud of him 🥰 Congrats, Joe!
Congratulations Joe Mauer!
Congratulations Joe Mauer!! Well Deserved!!! What a Home Town Hero Legend!!! One of my favorite Twins player by far!! Well Played Mauer!!
Not a twins fan but I’ve always loved joe, good job well deserved! Now get David wright in there
He was the best hitting catcher of his generation. Actually, he was probably the best hitter at any position. Well deserved
Well deserved #7!
Joe Mauer Is Goated 🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐
Congratulations Joe Mauer you are my favorite player since I started watching back 2005 I was born 2001
In the early 2000s the world had sent a strong message to the Minnesota Twins that they weren't wanted. A championship a decade ago was worth nothing in the face of cold hard cash. Minnesota knew darn well that it wanted its Twins, but the rest of the nation needed a wakeup call. They needed someone to lead the charge, to bring heart to the faithful.
And right on schedule, right on time, came the Hometown Hero, and for the next fifteen years, the Twins would be Mauer's team.
Yes and same with Torii and Johan and later Morneau. Even though they didn’t do anything in the playoffs they did bring some relevance back to MN
Congratulations to Joe Mauer! Wonderful human being and a great career! But I still don't understand why Steve Garvey and Tommy John have never been elected?
Rubbing salt in the wound by putting a play with Mauer tagging out Sheffield in this reel 😂
He was one of the nicest guys to ever play the game. Justin Morneau and Joe made a great duo. Justin with an MVP and a runner up and probably could have been on in 2010 if he didn't get hurt on a freak accident. Joe had a great year in 2009. The only problem I have is that he didn't catch in that many games. Apparently 2 of the 3 years he won a gold glove, the catchers in the league weren't that good. He only played a career high at catcher in 2008 with 139. He only played 4 other years over 100 games at catcher. He played a career high of 125 games at 1st base. And last but not least, he didn't win one game out of 10 playoff games! And he only had 1 rbi and 1 run in those 10 playoff games. That is why i couldn't believe he made it to the Hall of Fame. His 1st year of his huge contract, he got hurt. And only played a handful of games at catcher the next couple years. So how can you say he was a catcher when he couldn't lead them to one win in the playoffs!! Mark Grace was just as good if not better when he played for the Chicago Cubs and the Arizona
Diamondbacks, even to help Arizona to a World Series title! And he is not in!! Nice guys we need. But it is hard to justify Mauer getting in, especially on the 1st ballot!
Congratulations to Joe Mauer! Welcome to Cooperstown!
As it should be!
Congrats!
Well done... Congratulations!!
Well-played, Mauer.
Congrats Joe
What an incredible career
This is what I hope happens to SF Giants legend Buster Posey!
Legend!
now that I didn't expect! It is well deserved, dude was a career Twin who's wife had Twins... yet more proof that God's favorite game is baseball.
I knew Joe Mauer would make it into the Hall of Fame, congratulations.
Forever the goat🐐
This makes me so happy!❤❤#7
Congrats to Joe. 100% deserved.
Well Played Mauer.
Atta boy Joe!! CDH strong!
WELL PLAYER MAUER!!! 🐐
Congratulations Joe🎉
yesss
Aww schucks. Slightly better offensively than arraez. I think im tearing up. 🙃 gordon was in little big league. I was an extra on that movie. True story
Lotta commenters outing themselves as people who don’t know ball
Great player but I'm suprised he is going in the HOF. Don Mattingly has slightly better stats and more home runs and 6 time all-star.
Thats right!
I'm not going to say it's a travesty. I'll just say it's what's to be expected when the HOF now allows the like of Harold Baines in.
Joe Mauer, to the Hall of Fames..? No! way. Come on...this days any one can become a Hall of Famer..with an 260 BA.
Happy Trails to you Joe 😅😅😅
Must be others reasons..Bad Choice..
Congrats Adrian Beltre.......Go Rangers
It’s an absolute disgrace that this guy got in as a first ballot hall of famer. In his prime he was a great player, but neither his counting stats nor his accolades reflect that of a hall of famer, even his career JAWS is right on the fence of hall of fame status. Do not understand why this guy got in his first year at all.
That's what I'm sayin, worse yet the fact he's in and Don Mattingly is not is a disgrace. Don't believe me anyone go look up there stats side by side if Mauer is in on first ballot Mattingly should've been at least in on second or third but no.
Why not Beltran with better numbers?
Mauer's statistics and accolades are slightly better than the average hall of fame catcher, Carlos Beltran's statistics and accolades are slightly worse than the average hall of fame outfielder.
@@licota11; Quite identical to Andre Dawson to mention one. Fact no one like Beltran in post season.
so were just wiping the 90s early 2000s as the steriod era? and not electing anyone from that time frame besides helton? who knew if Todd didn't roid? he was in the same era as barry mcgwire and clemens.
He was a good player, a good guy and all that, but HOF? Not even close...I guess they lower the bar each year and anyone who was just "good" qualifies....
If Mauer isn’t a HOF then good luck to every catcher for the rest of history. Basically impossible.
@@charlieh3510 When I think HOF catchers I think Johnny Bench, Yogi Berra, Mike Piazza, Ivan Rodriguez, and those level of players. Mauer isn't one of these guys. But again, the bar is lowered as the years go by. Scott Rolen is an example of a guy who was good, but compared to the HOF standards of the previous generations he falls short.
In Mauer's case, he gets votes for "character" or whatever you want to call it, and that does count for the voters. It really shouldn't, but its also why McGuire, Sosa, and Bonds are not in....lack of character. We care about this now...long ago, no one did. Ty Cobb is in the HOF, but he makes Bonds look like Mauer.
@@feefop9858 Piazza never won a batting title. Neither did Rodriguez. Neither did Berra. Neither did Bench. Mauer won 3.
@@charlieh3510 So three batting titles gets you in the HOF? 143 Hrs? His best year was 2006 where he hit hit .365/28/96 - sure a great year and he deserved the MVP, but after than he never had any other years approaching that production. The next year he had nine home runs, never hit more than 11 the rest of his career. He was good, but not great. I'm sure his injuries derailed things, but that's also a HOF criteria - did you play a lot? He played 15 years but missed a lot of games during that stretch.
Very good player, but not HOF worthy IMO. As I mentioned they are lowering the bar so guys like Scott Rolen are HOF players now....
@@feefop9858 rolen had 70 WAR. Name another catcher other than Mauer with 3 batting titles. You. Don’t. Know. Ball.
Stoled the mvp from jeter in 2009
The year Mauer batter .365 with a 1.031 OPS and won the Gold Glove as a catcher?
Hall of Very Good.. This is the start of average players making rhe HOF
This guy is not a hall of fame player. Baseball HIF is rigged!
He sucked, it should be called the Hall of OK, if theyre going to let guys like this in!
Oh. I didn’t realize mvps with 3 batting titles and 3 gold gloves sucked.
@@joemiller7082 Not to mention the only Catcher in league history with 3 batting titles, the first one to do win even 1 in the league since 1938. The guy didnt hit home runs, who cares? He averaged .322 as a catcher before injuries relayed him to 1st base where his offensive numbers trailed off from years 11-15... literally only had 1 year where he struck out more than 100 times in a season. insane. Hit .365 as a catcher in his MVP season. crazy that everyone is gatekeeping this dude, but everyone in baseball is extremely happy for him.
This is our World Series.
Cuz we ain’t winning another one anytime soon lol
YES!!!! Literally the only professional athlete I've ever known, my hero, my friend. I am so happy for him. Tears of joy just thinking about it.
Great video tribute to a Hall-of-Famer. Missing one clip, though, that would make this complete: the no-look, behind the-back-catch of a carom off the wall behind home on a pitch fouled almost straight back.
Great job Joe Mauer! I’m not a Twin fan but I always admired your play! I always felt Buster Posey was our Giants Joe Mauer! Well deserving first ballot!
Well played Mauer!
Joe Mauer had a freaking cannon and great instincts on defense
How is Joe mauer in the hall of fame?Steve Garvey & Dave Parker aren't.
No way his stats warrant HOF! The hall is so watered down. It’s not special anymore!
Mauer is going to be a legend in the Minnesota..Farms...
Thank you, Joe, for being the epitome of what it means to be a kind, thoughtful human being. My helped me fall in love with the Minnesota Twins and baseball. You brought a lot of joy to my life with your great play and character.
I can’t tell you enough how much I appreciate what you’ve done, Joe.
THANK YOU!
Congratulations Joe Mauer!!
Must be "White Privilege" Mauer, doesn't got the numbers to be in the Hall of Fame.. He's a good person..but, "gets in on first try"? Come on.. That's why Baseball is dying, slowly but, ❤😂😂😂😂😢😮😅😊 surely..
There was a time when Joe Mauer was the best catcher in the league. Injuries made that incredible high to a rock bottom low.
The 4th player born in St. Paul, MN to make it into the Hall of Fame.
So deserved! Thanks for doing Minnesota proud Joe!!
One of the greatest Twins of all-time. Dude was unbelievable as a catcher, and could have done so much more if injuries didn't hinder him in the later stage of his career. Regardless, I'm so happy he got in the Hall of Fame, let alone on his first try!
Congratulations Joe Mauer!
Well deserved. Wish he could have broken .400. He got so close in his prime.
Hes no Williams
True professional.
I guess the Baseball Hall of Fame is a popularity contest....
Crazy a player who won nothing took his team nowhere and gets into the hall of fame on the first ballot but Jorge posada who was a big part of a team that won and dominated baseball does not get looked SHAME ..need to get better qualified writers and players to have more of a real say.
Mauer was better defensively. Did Jorge Posada single-handededly get the Yankees to the World Series? Nope.
Also, did he win a batting title? Orrrrr....3? Nah. Joe Mauer did. Hall of Fame is not a team awards rather an individualistic award.
@@benjaminhaglin7869 ... Mauer was a top player for a few seasons on a losing team and went no where sure he can be a HOF but so should winning and winning players.
Somewhere Mickey Mantle is smiling
Who is this?
Lets go!
Congrats, Joe Mauer!!! Well deserved
Congratulations to Joe Mauer!
I remember when #Mauer came up to the big leagues..the first 3 years..he was real good catcher, and hitter..but, after he received the big contract...Mauer numbers went down.. couldn't catcher any more..he was moved to first base..and never again was the player.. Minnesota.. though he would be. HALL OF FAMERS..NO! HES NOT.. SHEFFIELD..YES! SUPER STAR ALL THE WAY. FROM SAN DIEGO TO NEW YORK..
no shade on joe but how is mauer getting into the hall and don mattingly isn't in? mattingly's stats are clearly better
Mattingly wasn’t a catcher
@@charlieh3510 You can get injured in any position. Biggio moved from catcher to infield and was very protective for many years at the end of his career. Mauer signed a huge contract and was mediocre the rest of his career hurting the Twins. Gary Carter had a much better career and won a WS and it took him 6 years to get in the HOF.
@@jonathonhappel the contract didn’t hurt the Twins. The owner LET the contract hurt the Twins. Holding that against Joe is juvenile
Hall of Fame is a total joke now not even worth talking about or visiting.
Good to hear. The Hall of Fame won’t miss you.
@@Pauly_C.Oh yes they will, when they continue to go down the toilet.
@@LouieKaboom And you’ll go down with it. More reasons for me to go visit in the future.
Over sheffield ? Really
He's a catcher, dude
He was a great player but cmon not a hall of famer...you can't tell me he is in the 1% of greatest to ever play
Verrrrry short prime, muddled around for multiple seasons after that brief prime ended…Hall of Very Good. Just my opinion though (obviously).
I honestly thought he would be a 4th or 5th ballot, but not 1st ballot. I think he was only inducted because he was a Twin for life.
Yeah he shouldn't be in.
2nd best offensive catcher of all time to Mike Piazza + 3 gold gloves. Top 5 overall catcher to ever play the game.
He's a shoo-in HOFer for those who know ball.
People always judge catcher careers like they're just as long as other positions, which is foolish. A 10 year span hitting .323/.405/.469 is up there with the very best catcher careers of all time.
@@Benisuber1 Damn I forgot he was ever a catcher. 😏
Slap ball hitter that barely hit over .300 gets in 1st ballot lol
Only catcher in MLB history to win 3 batting titles, also won 3 gold gloves and was robbed of a couple more, 2nd best OPS in history among catchers.
Educate yourself.
Don’t forget MVP
