I could also point out how five balloteers turned in blank slates in a bold protest against the steroid era of baseball. Because Craig Biggio and Tim Raines certainly used steroids to improve their game. Are they going to do the same thing next year for one of the greatest right-handed pitchers of all time, who made a career out of throwing pinpoint junk? Someone voted for goddamn Aaron Sele this year. If baseball doesn't take a serious look at the requirements for entry into the BBWAA, it'll be a while before anyone takes a serious look at the Hall of Fame again.
