Players Eligible for 2016 Hall of Fame Ballot

[MattEmily]

Because today was the announcement of 4 players being elected to the MLB Hall of Fame I thought we could look towards to the next ballot which will be held in December.

This will only cover the players that are on the writers' ballot.

The ones that are marked in green will be on the ballot for the first time.

The ones that are marked in red are in danger of losing their chance to remain on the ballot due to being on the ballot for 14 or even 15 years.


Mike Piazza
Jeff Bagwell
Tim Raines
Curt Schilling
Roger Clemens
Barry Bonds
Lee Smith will be his 14th year on the ballot.
Edgar Martinez
Alan Trammell will be his last year on the ballot.
