Detroit Tigers News: Lou Whitaker misses out on Baseball Hall of Fame vote

When Lou Whitaker was placed on this year’s Modern Era Committee Hall of Fame ballot, many people saw this for what it was: Major League Baseball’s opportunity to right a wrong. Like most men in their mid-thirties hearing REO Speedwagon’s Roll With the Changes and finally admitting to themselves that it’s a banger of a song, the committee would have the opportunity to make a similar decision about one of the best second baseman in the history of the game. Well, it looks like we’ll all have to wait because the modern era committee is dumb and wrong, as Whitaker was not among those inducted into the Hall of Fame.
