We will not have any new members in the AFBL HOF for the 2047 class. 3 players all had 13 votes but with 19 ballots (WV abstain), that falls short of the 15 votes needed for 75% of the ballots.

Mason Hayter is like our Dale Murphy... Most of his career he was simply above average but boy did he shine for 3 seasons.

Does anyone have any automatic HOF vote stats and what's the number for AFBL yet?

AFBL Commish
2020-04-18 13:05:16

Also disqualifiers like if a pitcher is below 50% WinPct?

yuda
2020-04-18 13:58:58

I mostly rank by JAWS and go down the list, but I evaluate based on awards, other stats, etc. So no cut and dried triggers.

jeff_new_mexico
2020-04-18 14:18:58

I first narrow down list using minimum of 10/100/40 for Black Ink/Gray Ink/HoF Standards. Then look at everything else to see if I should drop or add anyone from/to that list based on other factors.

chappy
2020-04-18 16:14:04

I automatically vote for anyone with 10 awards. There are a bunch with 9 right now that I've had to weigh. I figure if you go to 9 or 10 All-Star games, then you were the best at your position during your era.

steve e
2020-04-18 16:23:56

I have different criteria based on the player’s hometown

x24rocks
2020-04-18 17:02:55

I rank on jaws and Hall of Fame standards Then I look at counting stats, But I also follow @chappy and look at awards tho for if I’m on the edge but All star Games are still somewhat of lets vote for my team

AFBL Commish
2020-04-21 20:33:36

We'll have at least 2 added to our HOF with a potential of 2 more pending the final ballots. Definitely in are:

  1. Ahilocana Gopalakrishnan

  2. José Meléndez

anybody guaranteed admission yet? (you don’t have to tell us who; don’t want to spoil ballots)

AFBL Commish
2020-06-27 09:22:22

No no one is guaranteed in yet. 1 player is over the 75% but barely so they'll need to be on at least 1 ballot I think to get in

yuda
2020-06-27 09:22:27

have you been hacked by clapham?

😂 mstreeter06
chappy
2020-06-30 10:57:24

It's probably because I look at numbers vs everyone at their position when I vote. So even though a guy like Ogai Tsuji has way better numbers than Stan Turner, I see Tsuji wasn't among the best 1B while he was active. However, Stan Turner was one of the best RF of his era, 8 time All-Star, 4 time Gold Glove winner, and heck of a nice guy.

chappy
2020-06-30 10:57:59

It's also harder for 1-dimensional players to get my vote. 500 HR but a .250 average won't impress me.

Georgia Titans salute Jose Cervantes and his final HOF ballot appearance. Jose has the highest career OBP for any player not already in the HOF. Elite on-base skills and gap power and deficiencies on defense were the hallmarks of his career. The very definition of a fringe HOF career.
Raul Hernandez was a power hitting SS (400 HRs) but limited defensive value. He was able to play capable defense, covering a difficult position with a strong bat. We feel his true value far exceeds his WAR.
