baseball HOF dropping some voters - stever20 - 08-03-2015 10:14 AM
don't think we talked about this at all. The Hall of fame last week changed their voting group to folks that have covered baseball within the last 10 years.....
That's going to drop of the 650 voters roughly 130 of them.
So the 75% requirement-
when 650- required roughly 488 votes to get in- so could be left off of 162 ballots
when 520- requires roughly 390 votes to get in- so could be left off of 130 ballots
Going to be really interesting to see how this impacts guys like Mike Piazza, Jeff Bagwell, Tim Raines, not to mention the guys like Clemens and Bonds. I think this could wind up helping some guys get in quite frankly.
