Should MLB keep Pete Rose banned, or finally put him in the Hall of Fame?

Rose was the all time hit king passing Ty Cobb.

1) He did gamble on baseball games and that included Cinncy Reds games TO WIN.

2) He never betted on baseball games as a player.

3) The Biggest revenue for MLB is online Gambling now

They should have done this :

1) Allowed him on Ballot to be in HOF

2) Banned him from managing or coaching or scouting , and tell him you can't have office job with any major league team.

3) Can appear for Amy team events as a player.

See , you have everything covered. He is out of Baseball but with his stats in HOF. So , he still gets punished.

He deserves in HOF.

You should be baseball commissioner , that would have been perfect solution

No, he shouldn't get in HOF ever

Now that he is dead it really does not make much difference but he really should have been in the HOF.

don't reward cheating... any more than they already do

I’m with you: Pete Rose should be in the Hall of Fame 🧢

He broke the core rule by betting on games, so a lifetime ban from managing, coaching, front office and any decision‑making role is fair. But the Hall is supposed to honor what happened on the field.

All‑time hit king, legendary competitiveness, and decades later MLB is partnered with sportsbooks. Put him in as a player, keep him banned from baseball operations. That strikes the right balance between accountability and recognition.

he only bet twice for his team to win? that doesn't really sound like a fix

[KostasKouvalis]

I mean, Maradonna is in the Soccer hall of fame and he literally took steroids, so I will say NO

I don't know who he is, and I actually don't even care.
