    The nerds don't think any relief pitcher is worthy of the Hall of Fame.

    There's probably some douchebags waiting for Mariano to be eligible out of some idiotic principle that Trevor shouldn't go in before him.

    Predicting next year's class:

    Trevor, Vlad, Chipper Jones, Jim Thome

    Trevor and Vlad were close enough in votes this year that historical precedent says they should go over the hump next year, especially with Chipper and Thome being the only likely HOFers on their 1st ballot (so no overcrowding issue)

    edit: Given the unique dynamic surrounding them, maybe Clemens and Bonds get over the hump. But I bet most voters are either sticking to their guns and refusing or at the very least "punishing" them by making them wait until their 10th and final ballots. If that's the case Bonds and Clemens would be in in 2022.
