Crowded 2016 Ballot

By Tangotiger, 11:37 AM

Andy Pettitte’s HOF chances is going to depend alot more than just on his talent and production.  It’s going to depend on the limitations of a system that won’t allow for more than 10 names, even if there is a ridiculously number of well-qualified players.  At some point, the ballot is going to be so bloated that the HOF will have to do something unconventional.

By the way: Frank Thomas is going to be shielded from PED speculation, I presume.
