It's Spring Training and that can only mean one thing: roster crippling injuries suffered during meaningless games! Ok maybe two things then, injuries and Hall of Fame Voting.
Take your time, review the candidates and submit your ballots here. We need every owner to vote, even if you wish to submit a blank ballot.
Players must be named on 80% of the ballots in order to be inducted (20 of 24 if all teams submit). A player must receive 50% support in order to remain on next year's ballot if he fails to receive enough support for induction. (This year's holdovers are OF Subaru Hiraki, R PGrant Lewis and RP Jon Cleary - for the 3rd time). We have several new generation owners amongst us now so the discussions of where these players fit into the first generation of players may be useful.
Take a moment to review this year's potential class members and feel free to publicly discuss the merits of any player (discussion threads for each player can be found in the Awards/Hall of Fame subforum here. We've set a high bar for induction so no candidate's chances can be taken for granted.
The voting utility will remain open throughout ST and we'll close the polls once Opening Day is here next Wednesday giving everyone almost an entire week to vote.
On this year's ballot:
OF Amistad Caballero
OF Franciois Dupuis
OF Subaru Hiraki
OF Tim O'Fay
C Jeremy Windley
RP Jon Cleary
RP Grant Lewis
Anselmo Napalo
SP Joe Ponte
P Martin Carlton
Good luck gentlemen!
