Documenting Baseball HOF voter malpractice, snubs, hypocrisy and ballot crimes ⚾️🤔🔥

[MLBHOFNonsense @MLBHOFNonsense]

@thescorechicago Has the @BBWAA taken over voting for the Pro Football Hall of Fame? This is the kind of stuff I have come to expect from them.

[104.3 The Score @thescorechicago]

It's ridiculous that Bill Belichick wasn't a first-ballot Hall of Famer.

[2and2toMookieWilson @MLBHOFPD]

You can say the stats and the game have changed BUT the value of CY Young and WS titles hasn't. So why would @dcone36 only receive 3.6% of the @baseballhall vote in his first/only year of eligibility while Lester + Hamels project to be on the ballot for 5 years. @MLBHOFNonsense

[MLBHOFNonsense @MLBHOFNonsense]

@MLBHOFPD @dcone36 @baseballhall Cone deserves another look for sure!

I guess it’s okay to be part of Houston’s sign stealing scandal (Beltran), plead guilty to domestic battery (A. Jones) and do HGH (Pettitte) but steroids are bad. #MLBHOF @astros @Braves @Yankees

[MLBHOFNonsense @MLBHOFNonsense]

@jupitercrash 100%.

[MLBHOFNonsense @MLBHOFNonsense]

@RagerX1976 I guess PEDs are worse than pleading guilty to domestic battery 🤔

[MLBHOFNonsense @MLBHOFNonsense]

@RetroCardSnaps @Topps 1984 all day for me

[MLBHOFNonsense @MLBHOFNonsense]

Since they started awarding Gold Gloves in 1957, 17 players have won 10+ Gold Gloves. 3 of the 17 are not in the Hall of Fame - Keith Hernandez (11 Gold Gloves), Omar Vizquel (11) and Nolan Arenado (not yet eligible) #MLBHOF @Mets @Cardinals @CleGuardians

[MLBHOFNonsense @MLBHOFNonsense]

Felix jumping from 20.6% last year to 46.1% this year and Hamels debuting at 23.8% would appear to bode well for Lester, who will be on the ballot for the first time in 2027. #MLBHOF @RedSox @Cubs @Phillies @Mariners

[MLBHOFNonsense @MLBHOFNonsense]

@JonHeyman Glad he acknowledged that based on the new focus on “peak” both Mattingly and Murphy should be in. And if Utley is getting in then Lou Whitaker should get another look as well.

[MLBHOFNonsense @MLBHOFNonsense]

@MAGAdino @MLBNetwork @jonmorosi The BBWAA hasn’t elected a positional player with 1500 or fewer career hits since Ralph Kiner was elected in 1975. Buster has 1500 career hits.

[MLBHOFNonsense @MLBHOFNonsense]

@BBGreatMoments Yes

[MLB Network @MLBNetwork]

“Buster Posey, I do believe will be a first-ballot Hall of Famer... In some ways [Jon] Lester's resume is even better than [Cole] Hamels.”

@jonmorosi looks ahead to the 2027 Hall of Fame ballot.

[MLBHOFNonsense @MLBHOFNonsense]

@BBGreatMoments For sure

[MLBHOFNonsense @MLBHOFNonsense]

@RealCombsy 💯

[MLBHOFNonsense @MLBHOFNonsense]

@WEEI @JonesWEEI @Keefe21 @JonesandKeefe Next up Buster Posey with 1500 career hits

[MLBHOFNonsense @MLBHOFNonsense]

@ReverendRalph @miles_commodore 💯

[MLBHOFNonsense @MLBHOFNonsense]

Felix Hernandez saw his support jump from 20.6% in 2025 to 46.1% in 2026, his 2nd year on the ballot. That trend suggests he will get in. Curt Schilling topped out at 71.1% in 2021 and dropped to 58.6% in 2022, his last year on the ballot. #MLBHOF #phillies #mariners #dbacks

[MLBHOFNonsense @MLBHOFNonsense]

The last player elected by the BBWA with less than 1500 hits was Ralph Kiner in 1975 (1451 hits). Ralph was also the last player elected with less than 2000 hits until Andruw Jones’ election this year. Does Buster Posey (1500 hits) make it? 1st ballot? #MLBHOF
