The Baseball Writers’ Association of America determine which players are granted entry into the Hall of Fame. Before they announce the Class of 2020, FanSided wanted to find out which candidates were worthy from a fan’s perspective.
Experts from each of the sites in FanSided’s MLB division were given the opportunity to submit a mock Hall of Fame ballot to find out who we would send to Cooperstown. We followed the same rules as the BBWAA, with up to 10 selections per ballot and a 75 percent voting threshold for election.
We had 42 writers participate, including both editors from our site representing the Boston Red Sox.
