Darren Daulton Parties Like It’s 2012

Last night, the Philadelphia Phillies inducted catcher Darren Daulton as the 32nd member of their Wall of Fame. I have mixed feelings about this. On the positive side, he was the leader of the Phillies’ 1993 National League Championship team, was a three time all-star, played 15 years for the Phillies, was plagued by injuries, and gives the 1993 Phillies a representative on the Wall of Fame.  On the negative side, he only had a .245 lifetime batting average, had only two seasons over 65 RBIs and only two seasons with over 15 homeruns, had DUI and domestic violence issues, and has stated his quirky beliefs about the occult and that the world will end in 2012 when the Mayan calendar runs out. Do you think that Daulton should be on the Phillies Wall of Fame, or do you think they should be a little more selective as to who gets chosen?
