    Attention! Big Unit, Smoltz, Pedro, and Biggio voted in Hall

    Piazza falls short. Pedro Martinez, Randy Johnson, Craig Biggio, John Smoltz voted into Hall - ESPN

    I voted for Erstad. When I got my ballot I thought it was for the Nebraska punting HOF.

    "Its tradition" BBWA need to get their heads out of their asses or MLB needs to find a new way of electing HOFers.

    You know why we'll never see a 100 percent induction? Because anybody who should be 100 percent will get in on the first ballot....but there are still voters out there with that asinine opinion that nobody should get in on first ballot...because, fuck you, that's why I guess?

    some voters opt to use their vote(s) on guys who are borderline instead of voting for a shoo in to try to help that lesser candidate.

    Griff and Hoff should be shoo-ins right?
    Nobody lookin out for nobody
    Maybe we should try and help somebody or be somebody
    Instead of being somebody that makes the news
    So everybody can tweet about it
    And then they start to R.I.P. about it
    And four weeks later nobody even speaks about it.

    Not to spark any wars with Padre fans, I'd imagine Junior is really the only shoe in. I'm not sure how the consensus treats any reliever outside of Mo.
