This election will also have a one week voting period, so this one will end next Thursday.
I number of long time favorites have dropped off. Johnny Pesky and Allie Reynolds have used up their 15 years, and Sherman Lollar and Dizzy Trout drop for lack of support.
For new voters: The number before the name is how many years they have been on the ballot. Like the BBWAA, we have 15 years to elect someone. The number after the name is where they placed in the Top 10 in the ’74 election.
