Love Jeff Kent but agree on cowardice of the committee. Here’s an amazing bit from Joan Ryan’s team chemistry book (read it! It’s got interviews with Bonds and Kent!) about how Jeff Kent doesn’t like birthdays & other things:

We don't talk enough about what non-stop prescription drug commercials are doing to the credibility of medicine.

A copy of the @chron.com Sports section from July 16, 1998, showing Billy Wagner on the ground after taking a comebacker off the bat of Kelly Stinnett. I took it to a game when Billy returned and asked if he’d sign it. He did, but he asked if he could read it first, since he’d never seen it.

Ballot #5 is from a voter who wishes to remain anonymous. As a refresher, we are unable to report adds or drops, if any, on anonymous ballots.
This is the first ever known David Wright-only ballot. There will not be a unanimous inductee this year.
