SnakePit Hall of Fame: Historical Pitching

In 2015, with Randy Johnson being the first certain inductee on the ballot for the more famous Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, the SnakePit Hall of Fame was established. The principle is simple: site members vote on a ballot that is, in general, equivalent to that voted on by the Baseball Writers’ Association of America (BBWAA). We have now voted ten times, and elected twenty players. We are more selective than the BBWAA; they have elected 24 members to Cooperstown over the same period, while we have not elected five players they have elected. (Curt Schilling is, for obvious reasons, in our Hall of Fame, but for equally obvious reasons, not in Cooperstown.
