Sometimes I feel like Baseball writers should be the last people that should have a vote. I mean, how could 23 writers not put Willie Mays on their ballot...you gonna tell me that they all thought he wasn't a first ballot hall of famer)? How about Aaron...9 writers left him off the ballot. I'm honestly surprised that Steve Carlton didn't have to wait to get voted in by the veterans committee. This mystical first ballot hof'er vs a regular hof'er is a bunch of bunk in my book.
