There are 20 new names on the newest Hall of Fame ballot this year. There are 15 carryovers, for a total of 35 names. Atlanta Braves fans will be watching for signs that a few of their favorite sons might break through this year… but let’s see how realistic that might be.
Fred McGriff has one more chance – this is his 10th year on the ballot. This is Billy Wagner‘s 4th appearance. Andruw Jones gets his 2nd trip through the gauntlet. Gary Sheffield will have a 5th attempt.
