The BBWAA announces the results of their Hall of Fame vote at 6 PM EST this evening on MLB Network. It looks like Mike Piazza will make it, with Jeff Bagwell and Tim Raines on the edge. The biggest question will be the number of ballots cast for Ken Griffey, Jr. The 174 known ballots all checked his name. My guess is his election will not be unanimous. Maybe it should be, and maybe not. There were better players who were not unanimous; I’d love to see that taboo broken, however. If Bagwell and Raines get in this year, I think the dam will break for Clemens and Bonds next year.
