Earlier today we talked about the IBWAA and its conducting its own Shadow Hall of Fame vote. There are a lot of others too. The Hall of Merit. The Baseball Reliquary. Probably others I’ve forgotten.
For the fourth straight year friend of the blog Graham Womack of Baseball: Past and Present has compiled a list of the 50 best baseball players not in the Hall of Fame. It’s a reader/voter-driven thing, with 208 ballots cast this year. Seven players gained virtual election this year. Click through to see who. And yes, I have given you a hint with the picture already.
As always, good stuff.
