The Baseball Hall of Fame announcements come out this afternoon; if I had a ballot, I would vote for Ripken, Gwynn, Jim Rice, and Jack Morris. Not McGwire... at least, not the first year.
I also hope McGwire will have the decency to release some sort of statement, where he praises Ripken and Gwynn, and says he doesn't want to be the focus of Hall of Fame week, the way Pete Rose was three years ago, when he released his book the week the inductions were announced.
UPDATE: It's Gwynn and Ripken, both nearly unanimously. I also really hope that the Veterans' Committee votes Buck O'Neil in, even if it's posthumously.
