So the National Baseball Hall of Fame just revealed the official writers ballot for this coming HOF class:

I can’t tell you what to do (or think, or vote for if you even had a vote), but for me I believe I would do the following, with hearty apologies to those who missed the cut:
- Bobby Abreu
- Adrian Beltré
- Todd Helton
- Andruw Jones
- Joe Mauer
- Manny Ramírez
- Álex Rodríguez
- Gary Sheffield
- Billy Wagner
I can see a few guys get some token votes or the writers trying to strategically keep a few guys on the 5% threshold so they can look at them next year.
