I 100% agree with Grant.
There is no way this decision is going to be announced by the Museum if the decision is to reinstate Jackson. That is a MLB call all the way. They will drum up some free PR for the museum, that's all. Should be about as effective as a 2 dollar discount coupon in the weekly Nickel Ads. As far as whether Joe gets reinstated, I also agree that his popularity will not increase much if any if allowed in. Some of his fame comes from him being a great player but not being in the Hall. It will irritate HOF Collectors (like me) who have been able to avoid collecting his astronomically priced cards since he's not in the Hall of Fame. Voting purely with my wallet, I am in no rush to have him added to my WL

Yawn. No way it happens unless Manfred departs from 90 years of baseball and then the voters give him the nod. I don't see it at all. I think I have an equivalent chance to be elected, and that ain't ever gonna happen. Non-issue IMO. Hope I'm wrong, because that would make for fruitful discussion, but not seeing it.

IMO
Jackson shouldn't be reinstated. If Mountain Landis decided on that all these years ago, and the fact that Frick, Chandler and every commissioner after him didn't reinstate them, then it is obvious that they shouldn't be voted in. ~Owen EDIT: And..... he's still banned http://www.sportingnews.com/mlb/stor...-reinstatement
