The Baseball Writers Association of America (BBWAA) cast their votes for players eligible for induction into Baseball’s Hall of Fame before January 1, 2012. Bleacher Report baseball writers cast their votes yesterday.
The premise of the vote was exact, however. All candidates that appeared on the official 2012 ballot appeared on B/R’s ballot, and writers were able to select a maximum of 10 candidates. For mock induction, a player needs to appear on at least 75.0% of the total ballots cast.
The following slides reveal our voting results and some comments from various B/R baseball writers about why they chose or didn’t choose players for induction.
