    Re: Julian Manuel

    He might be the best player I ever vote no to. It's close. I wouldn't mind revisiting him in another 5-10 seasons.

    Re: Julian Manuel

    I agree. Manuel will need to be revisited in a few seasons.

    Until then, I guess there's no shame in being the RSL's version of Fred McGriff?

    The Minneapolis option made me smile. I still voted St. Louis even though I know Mak wouldn't do the same for me.

    Because over roughly 80 years of real baseball voting there have been 21 first basemen elected into the hall of fame. In almost 40 years of RSL we've only voted in 2 of them. We're too damned harsh.
