The Hall of Fame ballot is here, so let the arguing commence. There are 15 holdovers and 20 new names.
The holdovers are: Barry Bonds, Roger Clemens, Andruw Jones, Jeff Kent, Edgar Martínez, Fred McGriff, Mike Mussina, Manny Ramírez,Scott Rolen, Curt Schilling, Gary Sheffield, Sammy Sosa, Omar Vizquel, Billy Wagner, Larry Walker.
I think all but one of the 15 holdovers is a worthy Hall of Famer (sorry Omar) but Martinez and Mussina are the most likely to make it this year. Clemens and Bonds continue to gradually increase their vote shares. In all likelihood, they will eventually overcome the PED stigma and get over the hump.
