Trees, Meet The Forest
Reason #3,618 why players and former players should not be involved in Hall of Fame voting:
Watching the Red Sox/Reds game yesterday (the one in which Daisuki Matsuzaka pitched five no-hit innings), Rick Sutcliffe, who can't get through nine innings without telling a Mark Grace story, called Grace "someone who might be in the Hall of Fame someday."
Ron Santo and Minnie Minoso can't get in, but Sutcliffe is ready to enshrine Mark Grace. Are we electing the best baseball players of all time, or are we choosing a prom king?

Lay off Sutcliffe. The Red Baron is absolutely, 100% correct -- Mark Grace just might get into the Hall of Fame someday. The only real question is whether or not I will be in line ahead of him at the admission booth...
