The Hall of Fame used to mean a lot to me. But the wishy-washy way it's conducted itself in the last 10 years, specifically the refusal to make a stand one way or the other on the steroids issue, has made my interest cool considerably.
From the Mets, neither Billy Wagner nor Gary Sheffield got in. The first is a victim of voters not really knowing how to handle relievers and the second with the voters' uncertainty of Sheffield's PED usage.
Meanwhile, David Wright drew enough support to stay on the ballot another year. It's a thing. Regardless, Wright was on a path to the Hall until injuries piled up. What's there is impressive. There's just not enough of it, unfortunately.
