so you gotta think Wagner will get in and Andruw Jones will probably make massive push upward. CC Sabathia, Felix Hernandez and Dustin Pedroia are the only other ones who probably have a case for 1st timers on next years ballot. Previous Message Previous Message Looks like the very deserving Adrian Beltre and Joe Mauer will get in on their first ballots. Todd Helton is probably gonna squeak by and Billy Wagner is right in the cusp. Could go either way. One of my favorite players ever Gary Sheffield is gonna fall just short on his final writer’s ballot. I hope Wagner gets in. I’m not sure I’d vote for him but at this point he’s gonna get in at some point and better off today than tomorrow. Hoping Chase Utley gets a strong 1st ballot showing.
