    Meanwhile Amaro will probably stand pat after dealing Rollins, or trade Hamels for pennies on the dollar, and sign a couple more 37 year olds to round out a 67 win roster. I'll be so psyched to see Jerome Williams or David Buchanon as our #1 starter.

    We need to hire Sam Hinkie so he can trade all of our guys who are over 25 for a bunch of low A prospects and some competitive balance picks. He'd be the Theo Epstein of Theo Epstein's.

    They really need to fix the voting process. Dunno if anyone read Stark's piece on it, but he believes (and I agree) the ten vote max thing is killer, especially when you have dipshits who will only vote for 1 person for whatever retarded reason.

    Another year for Bagwell and possibly Piazza to get screwed because they played in the 90s and had biceps.

    Burn it all to the ground and start over, taking away BBWAA credentials for dudes no longer covering baseball.

    I will be mildly less mad this year when Bagwell and maybe Biggio get shafted again since a few guys who for sure should be in should at least get in. It is still all bullshit.

    From what I've seen, Pedro, Unit, and Smoltz are locks, and Biggio is pretty close to a lock. Piazza is on the border. Everyone else is SOL.

    That's a sick class if even 4 of those 5 get in

    Sammy Sosa has gone from 12.5 percent to 7.2 to 6.6 in his three years on #HOF ballot. #Cubs

    Happy for Biggio. How do you not vote for Randy and Pedro? Who are these voters?

    Like they were just saying on ESPN, the way the voting works, they probably didnt vote for them cuz they knew they would get in, so they voted for someone else

    Some writers are pants on head retarded and refuse to vote for any first year player, that's why. Also, who the fuck voted for Carlos Delgado, Troy Percival, Aaron Boone, Tom Gordon and Darin Erstad? Those fuckers should have their voting rights removed. The fact that Tim Raines, Mike Piazza and Jeff Bagwell haven't made it yet either is a travesty, and don't get me started on the PED users. You can't have one group of cheaters in the hall but not another.
