Hall of Fame Voter Needs Data; Feed Me, Please

Publication Date: February 4, 2008

I've been asked, although I'm unclear on how I came to deserve such a serious honor, to be one of the voters for this year's class for the College Baseball Hall of Fame. Modesty aside, I probably do know (or know how to look up) about as much as most folks do on the candidates' careers, but the problem is that nobody knows all that much, at least at the level needed to differentiate between a good-looking field like this.

What I need from you, good readers, is information about any of the candidates that you're familiar with. I am who I am, so I'm most swayed by statistical arguments, but I'll also accept eyewitness accounts and even, on the older guys, anecdotal evidence. Anything to help me get a picture of these guys will be appreciated.

I have to turn my ballot in on Monday, February 11, so you'll need to get it to me quickly. So that you can see who the candidates are and what I already know about them, I've gotten permission to include the official ballot and information packet. Thanks for your help.
