2010 Hall of Fame Non-Inductees

The BBWAA will announce the results of their Hall of Fame voting for 2010 tomorrow afternoon.  Today, we will look at the 26 candidates and dismiss over half of them.  Tomorrow, we’ll take a look at those who have (or should have) a decent chance.

 

No Chance: The following should enjoy the experience, since they won’t make the 5% cutoff to stay on the ballot for next year.

 Slight Chance: Will never make it, but will get enough support to hang around the ballot.

  • Andres Galarraga – Remove the Rockie effect and he wouldn’t even be here
  • Dale Murphy – Was headed straight for the HOF until he fall of the cliff quicker than Jim Rice
  • Dave Parker – A tremendous arm and genuine All-Star, but not HOF material
  • Alan Trammell – Might have had a chance if it wasn’t for the SS offensive explosion that occured after he retired
