Yup. We all have our top 30 of players that have "generously" been inducted. For example, I'm not a Baines hater, but really?

The Baseball Hall of Fame with players like Babe Ruth, Cy Young, Hank Aaron, Willie Mays, Mickey Mantle, Ken Griffey Jr., Harold Baines, et al. That just sounds silly...

I never understood the need to exclude an obvious HOFer in their first year of eligibility. Well, not many voters/writers did so that tells you something about those that did.
