From now on, any ballot that is not correct (10 eligible names, ranked) I am not going to count. I will keep on the next year’s ballot anybody on that ballot or listed as a honorable mention. But I don’t like having to guess anyone’s intentions.
This election will end Tuesday.
Quite a few names drop off: Willie Davis, Dock Ellis, Jim Hunter and Thurman Munson have used up their 15 year window. Brian Downing, George Foster, Fred Lynn and Al Oliver drop from lack of support.
