2004 HOF
If you loved baseball in the 1980s, then you'll enjoy this roundtable discussion of the upcoming Hall of Fame vote (results announced January 4th).
If they gave votes to random baseball fanatics, this would be my ballot (in order):
- Wade Boggs
- Ryne Sandberg
- Jack Morris
- Jim Rice
- Goose Gossage
- Bert Blyleven
Then, I'd probably consult some books and some websites, and see how I feel about including Blyleven, and excluding Alan Trammell.
How would you vote? You can get the eligible players list here.

How Sandberg isn't a shoe it is baffling. Best 2B in the 80's. Period. If Pee wee Reese and Phil Rizzuto are in as SS, how come a guy who was the best fielding 2B and the best hitting of his generation doens't make it hands down.
And if I told you Blylevan stats, but nothing about where he played or what his "character" was, there is no way you would keep him out. Apparently he was a prick. And he played in Minnesota among other places. And most writers remember him as an old man in the World Series and not as a young master. I don't care. Put him in the hall.
