Well I tried. I realized, much too late, that it would be a good time for another round of Hall of Fame voting. Great idea. Except those posts take forever to write and I just couldn’t write it in time. I should have the first round of balloting tomorrow.
In the meantime, let me introduce you to a player who will be on tomorrow’s ballot who will get virtually no attention, but who fascinates me: Roy Thomas. Thomas played from 1899 to 1911, so there’s a rather good reason he’s not well known. He’s also not a Hall of Famer and I doubt you guys vote him in.
