Wagner has one more year on the ballot after this one and I think he's doomed if he doesn't get in now. The next class will have CC and Ichiro on it as first ballots. If Helton doesn't get in this year, he'll pull a lot of votes next year. Same with Mauer. Might not be enough to go around.
It'll be interesting to see how things go for him. He jumped a lot last year with a weak ballot.
I'm not sure K-Rod is a HOFer either but it's interesting he gets such little support but didn't have all that lesser a career.
