Ballot was released yesterday.

I see only 2 standouts and they are Mariano Rivera (definitely first ballot) and maybe Roy Halladay. I have not looked as carefully at his numbers.

Anyone else? The results are to be announced later today. I've heard there are several being voted in!

I've heard Bobby's son was a possibility, but I doubt that.

I guess we are going to have to get used to DHs being in the Hall, now.

Congratulations to the inductees but especially to Mariano Rivera.
