I would echo Andy's thoughts on Minoso and O'Neill. Minoso should be in, but definitely not as a Negro Leaguer. Buck O'Neill should be in as an ambassador for his overall contribution to baseball history, but not at the expense of a deserving player.
My understanding is that this is a one-shot deal, if they don't get in on this ballott then they don't ever get in, so I hope they do the right thing and elect a large group of these great ballplayers.
