    He's a "satire" writer, not a real one.

    Utley has lost more votes than any other returning candidate (5), but he's gained 2nd most (15) for a net gain of 10. 3 of the lost votes had 10 names, but the other 2 had room for him. Not sure why voters feel someone is a HOFer one year, but not the next.

    He's in! Finally.

    Going in along with CC Sabathia and Ichiro. Seems like Beltran is being punished.

    How did a team with 3 hall of famers in its core only make it to zero World Series with said core... (Wagner gone after 2003).

    Happy for my boy Wags. He was one of the reasons I wanted to play ball as a teenager.

    On another note, how was Ichiro not a unanimous selection?
