Jason, Re: Rose, you’re actually not correct.
One of the rules for election consideration on the Hall of Fame’s website is this: “Any player on Baseball's ineligible list shall not be an eligible candidate.” Last edited by MVSNYC; 11-28-2017 at 05:00 PM. |

Those two things are only tied together because of a rule set by the BBHOF. If they wanted, they could eliminate that rule and put Pete on the ballot. So the BBHOF is in control.

This doesn't change the fact that the HOF makes their own rules. They are not controlled by MLB. Pete Rose, Shoeless Joe, etc., could all be made eligible by the Hall by removing this statute, regardless of whether or nt their ban from baseball is upheld. Conversely, MLB could reinstate Rose, and the Hall still decide not to put him on the ballot. They are a totally separate entity.
