I want to see how many votes Trammell gets.....he was a pretty good shortstop in an era where shortstops weren't the mashers that they are today.

It will be interesting to see what happens with Grace. The media loves him and I know its a long shot but well see how things play out.

I think these two should be in. Rickey is a no-brainer, one of the absolute best ever, and Raines is far better than I think a lot of people give him credit for, partially because he was overshadowed by Rickey. Not sure he deserves in, but the numbers are quite impressive:

808 SB's
.294 BA
2605 hits
1330/966 BB/K ratio (pretty darn impressive for anyone, especially a guy they did not want on the bases.)
.385 OBP

Bangers and mash is English...not Canadian.

Now...slather it with mayonnaise, add some fatback and maybe you're on to something that's Canadian.
