The Baseball Hall of Fame will announce the Baseball Writers Association of America voting results on Tuesday. It will inevitably lead to arguments for and against certain players getting in or being left out. In recent years, the focus of these arguments has been on players from the “steroid era” of baseball.
This year is the final year for Curt Schilling, Barry Bonds, Roger Clemens, and Sammy Sosa. It’s also the first year of eligibility for Alex Rodriguez and David Ortiz. All of these players played when steroid use was rampant, but the evidence against each varies to a degree.
