A sweet BP article on possible HOFers, guys who should go, but mostly guys who shouldnt. While the last part of the story turns into a McGwire/steriods story the first 3/4's of it is really good...
On Blyleven
" Bert Blyleven remains the best starting pitcher in history not enshrined. It may be that no player's career has been so analyzed, and despite arguments that his won-loss record reflects a mix of underperformance and poor chance, I come back to first principles: a pitchers' job is to keep runs off of the board, and he bears little to no responsibility for his run support. Blyleven did that well enough in his career to warrant enshrinement."
