Voted Dahlen from this abbreviated list.
I don't understand why Reynolds is even on the ballot. It certainly isn't a math argument that places him there. Reynolds - 25.4 WAR (375th all time among P's), 2492 IP, 109 ERA+ Lopat - 32.1 WAR, 2439 IP, 116 ERA+ Raschi - 16.5 WAR, 1839 IP, 105 ERA+ Heck, we can even leave the exact same rotation: Shawkey - 47 WAR, 2937 IP, 114 ERA+ Stottlemyre - 43.1 WAR, 2661 IP, 112 ERA+ Reynolds is just a bizarre choice. Are they just trying to shove any Yankee pitcher in the hall? Did they just pick him randomly from the 50's rotation? Out of 10 players from 74 years of MLB baseball, 7 of which are taken up by Negro Leaguer's, this is one of the top 3 long-recognized-as-a-major-league-or-whatever-we-will-call-it-now-leagues players not in the Hall? I find it difficult to see how he could be chosen as one of the top 3 via any reasonable metric, only by being a nostalgic Yankees fan.

I agree on Buck and also a write in for Hodges - That one has puzzled me for many years.

Hodges
Gil Hodges is in the second poll I put up. He's there since his career is considered to be during the "Golden Age" of baseball by the Hall of Fame, rather than the pre-1950 time period. Please feel free to vote for him in the other poll!

Results
So, here we are after 115 N54ers voted. No players received 75% of the vote or more. I guess it's hard to get 115 people to agree on anything, maybe that's why the Hall limits the voting to committees of 16. I just hate to think that someone can go into the Hall of Fame based on the positive opinions of just 12 people. In any event, here's where we are at:
1) O'Neil 67% 2) Dahlen 64% 3) O'Doul 55%

Very surprised at these results and the results from our Golden Era Poll
Based on that Net54forum voted no one into the HOF from either group. Should be interesting to see what the real vote results are. We shall see in a month
