I think in one of the most 2021 things ever, I expect one candidate who has no documentable qualifications to be elected to the Baseball Hall of fame with be chosen (O'Neil) because of intangibles and being a nice guy while another who clearly has the on-field qualifications and no taint of HGH (Schilling) will not be selected because he is not a nice guy.
Donaldson and Redding are much better Negro League candidates than O'Neil. I met Buck several times and he was an amazing man which is all that any one of us can hope to be, but you really have to do some mental and statistical gymnastics to make him a hall of famer. But it couldn't happened to a nicer guy.
