I'm a first-time Hall of Famer voter this year. You can always count on me to do my homework, put forth my most good-faith effort and care as much as is humanly possible. Here's why:

@Keener199 hell yes! Thank you

@NJHorseplayer ah hell, I accidentally looked at last year. I'm sorry. My bad. Thank you for letting me know

RT @RealCJ10: @SRismiller @kristinbroadway In Gwinnett!

@01Starblazer @Anthony44922210 I can't guarantee you'll like me, but I can guarantee I'm happy and love the sport and certainly would never want to make sports worse for fans.

@amagspicks @BearCubs79 thank you both!

@DaleCosby absolutely true

@DaleCosby Compared to the other major sports, it has the widest variety of playoff teams and champions in the smallest playoff field. I'm sure you could make the case, but it's a tough case to make. People just feel reassured when there's a salary cap.

the only conclusion is if a team wins *1* full season championship since 1988 then that team isn't allowed to make moves the following offseason

@SpeaKEaSY_DotA thank you! And fair.

@TwittinSports yep, all part of the experience

@PadreFanDan Thanks man! Thank you for being one of the best readers one could ever ask for

@BruceWonderlick thank you! I'll add this question to the mailbag tonight. It's running very soon

@ErikNLarson You do with me. I listen to all arguments and look at myself as a representative of fans.

@GrossWeather I did it last year. Dick Allen is in now, but Whitaker was my 2B.
