Jackson wasn't convicted, although it was a Chicago Kangaroo court so that doesn't mean much. Landis had to do what he did to make a stand against gambling at the time.
Rose was an asshole but he wouldn't be the first one in the Hall.
Jackson should be a no-brainer at this point.
Let's pull Bud Selig and Joe West from the Hall and put those two guys in.

Fortunately, I don't think Joe West is in the Hall. I agree with pulling Selig out since he oversaw the whole PED era and didn't do much to stop it. Tony LaRussa should be out to since he benefitted as a manager from McGwire and Canseco among others, and it's hard to believe he didn't know what they were doing. Doesn't seem fair to only punish the players by keeping them out but letting these others in.
