Before everyone jumps in and starts arguing about a hundred different types of WAR stats (all theoretical, mind you), I will say although Joe Carter's career batting average was pretty low, he's who jumps out to me.

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.

Steinbrenner is the only one I would vote for (and this is coming from a Sox fan).

Steinbrenner without a doubt.

I could make a case for Lee Smith as he was the dominant closer and all time save leader for quite awhile but realistically, there is no way he is getting in. I think the only one that will see enshrinement will be The Boss.

It has always been easier for Managers & executives to be voted in these types of things so Steinbrenner probably gets in, and Pinella has an outside shot as well.

Of the players I think Will Clark is the best of that bunch and has a chance but he isn’t very well liked so that may not happen. Lee Smith has an outside chance but I just don’t see it happening. Strange group if you ask me. There are so many players that are equally as good as players on this list and not there... Mattingly, Tony Fernandez, Julio Franco, Mark Grace, John Olerud, Paul O’Neill, etc.

Default Numbers

Breaking down the members of the Hall of Fame is interesting. Some may say categories are over or under represented. Take these numbers for what they are worth...

Players = 255
Executives = 35
Managers = 23
