Crazy, but this is the way it projected exactly two weeks ago: South Side Sox and the BBWAA elected the same four players in the 2019 Hall of Fame class: Mariano Rivera, Mike Mussina, Roy Halladay and Edgar Martinez.
The BBWAA had 425 voters, SSS got 326, so the vote totals are different. However, our percentages for all players were different, as well. Let’s take a look at how things differed, to see who polled more smartly — the BBWAA or SSS. (Hint: We kicked their ass.)
Mariano Rivera
BBWAA Vote: 100%
SSS Vote: 81.
