Wow, that's amazing to think about...after the recent 5+ year logjam on the ballot. I mean, for a good number of years, there were 15 guys on the ballot who had strong cases to be in the hall, and voters could vote for a max of 10.
But yes, we have Jeter this year, Ortiz next....it's really thinning out.
I credit the rule that votes become pubic and the cleanup of the voting base with finally clearing up the logjam.
