The Astros have been waiting for a Hall of Famer ever since Nolan Ryan made the mistake of going into the Hall as a Texas Ranger.  Biggio is now in.  In some respects the Hall of Fame is a testament to durability.  Ten years of excellence may not get you in.  But 20 years of really good play will probably do it.  You can’t deny Biggio’s rankings in some of the all time categories including doubles, plate appearances, at bats and hits.  But he excelled in a favorite categories — “Hit By Pitch” where  Biggio is second all-time with 285. The body aches just thinking about it.
