I initially requested to join Bluesky around February I think. Since then, with the same email I initially registered with, I received an invite from someone else and in turn have given another 10 people or so their own invites. Anyway, I received an official invite from Bluesky today.
HoF Balloting is live, follow at tracker.fyiSo far, Joe Mauer is on 100% of all publicly known ballots (2 of 2, so still early)NM, the ballot was released today, and this is just test data set up for when the voting starts happening. I jumped the gun
Even the tests think Mauer is a Hall of Famer.
Here's the ballot if anyone doesn't feel like looking it up:
Who thinks Bartolo will get more votes than Johan?
Who thinks Sabbathia will get more votes? Oh, wait, that's been done before
It's the high bar of ten votes, the same as Jamie Moyer.
From your link - Rolen only had 10.2% his first year (43 votes).
I wonder what the lowest vote total for a player who eventually made the HoF is?
Sarah Langs had that same question earlier this year.
Almost dragged myself into Mauer box thumping after a tweet today. Too early.
Without doing any research, I think I have 7 votes at the onset.
Yea, that should have been flagged and the turnover voided.
