Griffey sets the new percentage vote, being left off of only 3 ballots.

Bagwell missed out by 15 votes, should be a good bet for next year. Raines also came in around 69% so that could bode well for next year.

Griffey Jr going in the Hall.

Going to assume those 3 voters used the Babe Ruth excuse as why it wasn't unanimous.

2 players going in. Gonna be a short day at Cooperstown.

Junior was obvious, so was Pizza. Congrats to them. 3 guys who left Griffey off should have their memberships revoked.

With next year being his final year on the ballot that usually leads to a natural upswing in votes. Also, 16 of 17 players who have gotten a vote % that Raines had have gone in the next year, so that's why he and Bagwell should be virtual locks for next year. Hoffman got closer than I thought he would so it's possible all 3 are in next year.

Vlad is probably the best bet for a first ballot guy next year. Pudge probably won't make it straight away just based on suspicion. I could see Posada sticking around on the ballot for 10 years but not sure he'll make it. Manny won't make it since his steroid usage is confirmed, the only question with him is whether or not he gets bounced on the first ballot.

Also Bonds and Clemens...not sure. They each gained around a 20% bump in the voting, but still will need 130 or so new votes each to make it. They each have 6 years of eligibility yet but getting 130 voters to change their mind of a group of 450 might be tough.

That might be worse just for the public backlash alone. Not that Jeter or Rivera or someone else isn't worthy but the reason them getting a possible unanimous induction was due to voters being tired of the ridicule.

Piazza will announce the cap he'll wear on his plaque, which almost has to be a Mets one unless he decides to turn heel.

Pumped. Realistically this will be the last chance I'll see a guy enshrined as a Met for a couple of decades. I don't know if Beltran will make it to the HOF and if he did I think he'd sooner go in as a Royal or with no logo like Maddux. There was a time I thought Wright was gonna have a HOF career but sadly I think his only chance now is to stay healthy and produce like 2006-08 David Wright for the rest of his career. I think he's missed too much time, unfortunately.

The committee officially decides, but they ask for the players' input and generally do what the player wants unless it's something egregious.

Maddux went in with no logo at his own request, since he didn't want to slight the Braves or Cubs and identified with both franchises. Big Unit thought about going the blank cap route but ultimately asked for a D-Backs cap since that's where he won his ring and threw his perfect game, and the committee honored it.

There are no more Tampa Bay Devil Rays.

Also the contract didn't involve an agreement with the Hall of Fame Board, invalidating it.

Yeah, I thought the whole reason the committee decided they get final say was because Boggs more or less tried to sell his choice to the highest bidder.

Looking into it, appears Boggs was the reason for the Hall now "offering" which teams they can choose. In Boggs' case, I can see why, but I'm certain Dawson didn't wanna go in as an Expo and they pretty much forced him to keep memory of Montreal baseball alive, which is stupid.

Similar thing happened with Carter. He wanted to go in either as a Met since that's where he won his ring and he was a co-captain, or he wanted to go in with a split cap. The Hall made him an Expo.

In the case of both Dawson and Carter, they played way longer as Expos but still kinda unfortunate for both guys that the committee didn't budge like they do nowadays. If Unit had been eligible a few years ago they probably would have forced him in as a Mariner since it's where he played the longest (his HOF page on their website even has Mariners listed as his primary team despite the D-Backs cap).

Former scouting director for the Cardinals pleaded guilty to hacking the Astros players database. Nobody else from the organization seems to have been involved with the hacking nor data collecting.

Buzzfeed’s Lindsey Adler reports that federal agents assessed that Correa accessed the Astros’ scouting list of each player eligible for the draft that season, as well as extensive scouting information about the available prospects.

Pretty even trade. Toronto gets a decent if unspectacular bullpen arm and Washington gets a decent if unspectacular outfielder.

Looks like Papelbon is staying put for now m

Jays must be holding a lot of stock in Travis/Pompey at leadoff, as they just traded away the best potential leadoff guy (a lefty at that) they have had in years....

They needed the help in the bullpen, but I'm not sure dealing Revere was the best solution...

Hope Storen gave the Nats organization the finger on his way out the door. Them bringing in Papelblown and with him still hanging around pretty much destroyed his confidence in being a closer.

If he get its back in Toronto, Washington is gonna look stupid.

They shafted Storen big time. And now they're stuck with a volatile clubhouse cancer that tried to choke out their best player.

Not sure Revere is a great leadoff hitter. He's average at best at getting on base.

He's not, but name a Jays leadoff guy that has been better?

Mariners announce plans to retire #24 this year, worn by former second baseman and current broadcasting great Harold Reynolds from 1984-86.

Congrats Harold.
