Was he really making the HOF before this stretch? He was dominant for a long time, but it’s been several years of iffy performance before this season.
This is a post title fit for r/baseballcirclejerk
Decent chance he fell out of the HOF according to… “Sam Miller”
I highly doubt that changes his HoF chances
10% of his career Earned Runs (23/233) have been from those 18 innings
Every time we trotted his corpse out there this year KB and Jim very confidently refered to him as “future hall of famer,” and yet despite his save volume, there’s really nothing about his career that screams HoF to me

Kimbrel will likely pitch again next year. He’s only 36 and was solid as recently as June. So these numbers may change again.
**Relievers with 800+ IP, 170 ERA+ or better**
Mariano Rivera
Billy Wagner
~~Craig Kimbrel~~
**Relievers with 800+ IP, 150s ERA+**
Joe Nathan
Kenley Jansen
Craig Kimbrel
You can see how Kimbrel got knocked back a peg, if you’re looking primarily at ERA+.
He was in much better HOF shape when he lined up with Billy Wagner.
Remember when people were saying he was better than Mariano and would be better than him at the end of their careers?
I swear you get absolutely pounced on in this sub for disagreeing that 3-5 of the best closers at any given time deserve to be in the HOF. The bar is higher for relievers as it should be. So many are failed starters for a reason—starting is harder and more valuable.
Every day I wake up and there’s a new baseball stat I’ve never heard of
