This is what the ballot (player-wise) should look like:
Billy Pierce Rick Reuschel Dave Stieb Bill Freehan Ted Simmons Keith Hernandez Bobby Grich Willie Randolph Lou Whitaker Dick Allen Ken Boyer Darrell Evans Graig Nettles Alan Trammell Jimmy Wynn Dwight Evans Reggie Smith These are the players that I feel are no brainer Hall Of Famers Ted Simmons Bobby Grich Dick Allen Ken Boyer Dwight Evans These are the others from the list that I would vote for Dave Stieb Keith Hernandez Lou Whitaker Graig Nettles Alan Trammell Reggie Smith Tom C |

Honestly, I can't recall how he did in these 'veterans' type 'secondary' votes - and BBR doesn't seem to have records of those previous votes. I was referring to the BBA voting from which he got 36% his last year on the ballot (1996) and topped out at 47% (1988) - I guess, in retrospect, that's fairly serious consideration, but not at all close to getting in...and, IMO, it is a real shame!
