Here's a Hall of Fame that anyone can vote for: The White Sox Cards Hall Of Fame.
Yes, it's that time of year again, but this time around there will be a shorter window for voting.
You
can vote for as many or as few players as you want. The rules are the
same as the MLB Hall of Fame. 75% of the vote will get a player in. At
least 5% of the vote will keep a player on the ballot for next year. A
player has to be away from the White Sox for a minimum of five years
for ballot consideration. If a player cannot get 75% of the vote after
15 tries, he is taken off the ballot.
Last ballot, three players were voted into the WSC Hall Of Fame. Who will make it in this year?
The
2017 ballot includes a player for each positional spot on the field, a
designated hitter, a manager, and pitching has been split into spots
for starter, middle relief and closer.
Joey Cora – 2nd Base (1st year)
Joe Crede – 3rd Base (1st
year)
Oscar
Gamble - DH (7th year)
Rich Gossage – P (1st
year)
Dummy Hoy – OF (4th year)
Frank
Isbell – 1st Base (6th year)
Fielder
Jones – OF (6th year)
Al
Lopez – MGR (7th year)
J.C. Martin - C (1st
year)
Jack McDowell - P (1st year)
Minnie Minoso - OF (1st
year)
Bobby
Thigpen - P (6th year)
Buck Weaver - SS (5th year)
Voting
will be through July 11, 2017, with the results announced shortly
after. You can vote on the right sidebar. Any position left open due to
election or cuts will be filled by another player next year.
The results should prove interesting. Have fun!

Why is Dummy Hoy getting NO RESPECT? :(
Start a campaign on his behalf. I'd love to see him get in and I don't understand the lack of love for him here. People who know and respect the game should know who he was and what his accomplishments were.
