Baseball Hall of Fame ballots are coming out this time of year and one of the recent ones to make it to social media publicly was courtesy of Dan Gelston. A writer for AP News, he put together maybe the most disgusting ballot a New York Mets fan could ever imagine.
Yeah, it’s real. Gelston isn’t to Philadelphia what Mark Gooden is to New York. His vote counts and it’s perplexing how one could have a vote when a quick look through his X profile shows where the bias lies.
A clear Philadelphia sports fan, voting for no one other than Jimmy Rollins and Chase Utley is enough to question the thought process behind this.
