Hall of Fame Mock Poll

[rog]

MLB Trade Rumors has a mock Hall of Fame Ballot going.  This doesn't translate into 75% of ballots necessary for induction, but here are the percentage of the TOTAL votes the players have received.  Which players would you vote for?

Mariano Rivera           13%

Roy Halladay               10%

Edgar Martinez            10%

Mike Mussina                8%

Barry Bonds                  7%

Roger Clemens              7%

Curt Schilling                6%

Fred McGriff                  5%

Larry Walker                 5%

Manny Ramirez             4%

Todd Helton                  3%

Jeff Kent                      3%

Omar Vizquel                3%

Billy Wagner                 3%

Andy Pettitte                3%

Andruw Jones               3%

Scott Rolen                  3%

Gary Sheffield              2%

Sammy Sosa                2%


Based on what I see here, I'm guessing Rivera (no brainer), Halladay, and Martinez (last year of eligibility IIRC) get in.  Mussina, Bonds, Clemens and Schilling likely get voted in before their eligibility runs out, and off the top of my head I'm going to guess three to six others, which might include Kent and Vizquel.

My vote likely would have changed slightly had I done a little research, but I voted for nine of the top 10, but Kent instead of Walker.  I admit to bias on this preliminary vote.  I suspect if my vote had been both real and researched, I would have voted for Walker.
