Former New York Yankees third baseman Alex Rodriguez will be the most divisive player ever on the Cooperstown ballot. Here's why he gets my vote.
was on 61.6% of the ballots last year, which means -- like Bonds -- he’s unlikely to get in. Maybe the Eras Committees, as they’re now called, will put them in a few decades. I doubt it.Ramirez received only 28.2% of the vote last year, and that’s certainly because -- unlike Bonds or Clemens -- he actually was suspended for steroid use. Maybe that should disqualify him, but I’m going to follow my own criteria, remember his sustained greatness at the plate and check the box again.
Without question, my vote here is based more on what I witnessed up close over Pettitte’s career than a thorough breakdown of his numbers. If Jack Morris, a multiple World Series winner who saved his best performances for the postseason and who won more than 250 games, is a Hall of Famer, then maybe Pettitte has a shot years from now.I’m always a little surprised that Kent doesn’t get more support .
