Mariano Rivera received 100% of the HOF vote. First player unanimously elected.

Roy Halliday, Edgar Martinez, and Mike Mussina also make the Hall.

I can't really argue with any of those inductions. Wild that Rivera got 100%.

I'm going to puke when Jeter is the only inductee next year.

Griffey deserved 100%.

Fuck you’re right, Jeter solo class would be so ... Jeter. Ugh.

Especially when a superior player like Larry Walker will likely fall short in his last chance on the ballot next year.

I still feel like the guys prior to the obviously cheating era are getting short changed. Fred McGriff is as good as a lot of guys already in.

Also Andrew Jones was the best defensive center fielder of his era. He dominated the position defensively for more than a decade. I don't much care that he got fat and tried to hit HR's late in his career.

McGriff is borderline for me. Walker, Jones, and Rolen, though, should be no-doubters.

surely there was an article in some newspaper that is housed in some repository to which others have electronic access.

I struggle with Walker because I feel like all his stats are inflated from playing in Colorado...there's years where he hit .400 at home and .230 everywhere else...I get you can't help the environment you play in, but I definitely feel like you have to take it into account...Walker was a very good player but I don't know that I ever thought of him as a hall of famer

The other two you mention (Jones and Rolen) I kind of think of the same way...very good players, maybe even had great years each, but hall of fame?
