2020 MLB Hall of Fame Voting

The ballot for the 2020 baseball Hall of Fame class was released a couple weeks ago. So it's time for me to put out my theoretical ballot of who I would vote for as well as my prediction of what the results will be.  Last year I predicted all 4 new inductees.  Hopefully I can do as well this year.

This year's ballot includes the following 32 players:

Curt Schilling   Roger Clemens   Barry Bonds   Larry Walker   Omar Vizquel   Manny Ramirez
Jeff Kent   Scott Rolen   Billy Wagner   Todd Helton   Gary Sheffiled   Andy Pettite   Sammy Sosa
Andruw Jones   Derek Jeter   Bobby Abreu   Jason Giambi   Cliff Lee   Rafael Furcal
Eric Chavez   Josh Beckett   Alfonso Soriano   Brian Roberts   Carlos Pena   Chone Figgins
Paul Konerko  Raul Ibanez   Brad Penny   Adam Dunn   JJ Putz   Jose Valverde   Heath Bell 

My Picks (up to 10 votes allowed):

Derek Jeter
Bobby Abreu
Larry Walker
Curt Schilling
Scott Rolen
Billy Wagner
Andruw Jones
Todd Helton
Omar Vizquel
Jeff Kent

My predictions of players I find interesting (75% of voters needed for election):

Derek Jeter- 99.3%
Curt Schilling- 81.1%
Larry Walker- 76.1%
Roger Clemens- 63.3%
Barry Bonds- 62.9%
Omar Vizquel- 53.5%
Scott Rolen-36.8%
Todd Helton-33.2%
Billy Wagner- 26.4%
Manny Ramirez- 25%
Jeff Kent- 24.7%
Bobby Abreu- 15.7%
Andruw Jones-8.1%

This year I also decided to look at the Veteran's committee ballot.  This includes players who had previously been on the hall of fame ballot and not elected.

The ballot:

Lou Whitaker   Dwight Evans   Tommy John   Dale Murphy   Ted Simmons   Thurmon Munson 
Don Mattingly   Dave Parker   Steve Garvey

My picks (up to 4 votes allowed):

Lou Whitaker
Ted Simmons
Dwight Evans
Thurmon Munson

*Tommy John would be 5th

My predictions:

Lou Whitaker
Ted Simmons


So there it is!  My voters and predictions for the upcoming MLB Hall of Fame Ballots!  Let me know what you think!
