Yesterday, former Washington Nationals manager Davey Johnson was one of ten names that are on the Today’s Game Ballot by the Hall Of Fame Veterans Committee. The committee will vote on these names December 5 to see if any of them will be elected to Cooperstown. Some of those names besides Johnson are first baseman Mark McGwire and former commissioner Bud Selig.
Out of the ten names, Johnson is the only one with ties to the Washington Nationals organization. Johnson filled in as the interim manager for the Nats in June 27 after the team decided to part ways with Jim Riggleman and John McLaren.
