Reminder, you are limited to 10 selections.
My list
1. Bonds - arguably the greatest player of all time, PED's don't do enough to make a player this great
2. Clemens - arguably the greatest pitcher of all-time, PED's don't do enough to make a player this great
3. Schilling - 27th pitching in rWAR, 53rd in WAR7, 27th in JAWS. He's above the base line, and easily within the 75 greatest pitchers of all-time, also a good post-season seals it for me
4. Derek Jeter - despite being criminally over-rated his entire career, he's still an easy Hall of Famer. One of the best offensive shortstops of all-time, great post-season career, plenty of length to his career too.
5. Larry Walker - 141 OPS+? Yes please. I don't care if played in Coors for a lot of his career, when you park and league adjust, he was a beastly 5 tool player for a long time. He's probably the 10th best Right Fielder of all time, and the best not elected so far. Out of 25 already elected Right Fielders, he's an easy choice as well.
6. Scott Rolen - 5th best defensive third basemen, while being a top 20 offensive third basemen making him one of the 10 best third basemen ever. Out of 16 elected Third basemen, and the best to not have been elected, he belongs in.
I remain on the fence about Manny, Sheffield and Pettite. For me, they are all already very borderline players, and the fact that each is a known PED user doesn't help push them over an edge. I can get over PED's for guys that are slam dunk cases, but for borderline guys, it matters to me about as much as a great or a horrible post-season career can matter to me.
I like Helton, Andruw Jones, and Bobby Abreu quite a bit, but for me, they are all just a little short and would only be elected if we were choosing to expand the Hall of Fame. But I won't cry if any get elected.
Billy Wagner deserves consideration only for the fact that Trevor Hoffman went right in.
The rest are easy 'no's' for me.
I'm voting for...
