SBN HOF balloting

The SBN baseball bloggers did a Hall of Fame ballot recently, and if the SBN bloggers were the Hall of Fame voters, we'd have exactly one inductee this year -- Bert Blyleven:

Name Votes Percentage
Bert Blyleven 48 92.3
Roberto Alomar 38 73.1
Barry Larkin 33 63.5
Tim Raines 28 53.8
Mark McGwire 27 51.9
Edgar Martinez 25 48.4
Alan Trammell 21 40.1
Andre Dawson 17 32.7
Lee Smith 14 26.9
Fred McGriff 13 25.0
Dale Murphy 9 17.3
Jack Morris 7 13.5
Don Mattingly 6 11.5
Harold Baines 4 7.7
Kevin Appier 2 3.9
Dave Parker 2 3.9
Ellis Burks 1 1.9
Ray Lankford 1 1.9
Shane Reynolds 1 1.9

 

You can check out a Google Docs spreadsheet that has each individual ballot here.  The first LSB ballot listed is mine, the second is z's.  There were 52 ballots in all.

That Tim Raines didn't get more support is baffling.  That one voter had Dave Parker, Don Mattingly, Jack Morris, Harold Baines, and Dale Murphy on their ballot, but not Raines, is mindblowing.
