My 2016 and 2017 Baseball HOF "Ballots"

In 2016, I would have voted for:
Griffey
Piazza
Bagwell
Mussina
Schilling
Kent
Raines
Edgar
Hoffman
McGriff

In 2017, I would have voted for:
Bagwell
Mussina
Vlad
Schilling
Kent
Raines
Edgar
Hoffman
McGriff 
Walker

Others worthy of serious consideration:  
Smith
Wagner
Pudge (Perhaps it's unfair to exclude him without hard evidence of PED use and it looks like voters are giving him the benefit of the doubt)

In the past, I hoped Bonds and Clemens would never get in because their numbers aren't real and they have helped to destroy baseball as a game of numbers. But it looks like they are going to get in, so I hope it happens asap to help clear out the ballot a little bit. Their presence on the ballot may cost people election to the Hall, another terrible side effect of their misconduct.
