    Congrats to both on making it into the HOF. Blyleven in his 14th attempt and Alomar in his 2nd.

    Palmeiro with only 11% of the vote (I actually thought he would be higher) and McGwire with 19% (down from 23% last year).

    Barry Larkin looks like he is sure to get in with 62% of the vote and Bagwell looks like he will eventually make it as he got 41% in his first attempt.

    2012 is an awful class (bet Larkin makes it then as there's little else to vote for as far as new entries in the 2012 class) but then comes 2013 with Barry Bonds/Craig Biggio/Roger Clemens/Curt Schilling/Sammy Sosa/Mike Piazza. 2013 is going to be very interesting to see who gets in.

    Thought Alomars spitting incident would hold him back longer

    Blyleven should have been in earlier. I remember watching him on tv back in the day and that guy had a wicked curveball.
