The Class of 2011

Once again, it is time for us to pause and reflect on those players
who truly stood out from their peers as the greatest of the greatest.

Each year, we ask the league's owners to vote on players eligible for induction into the Diamond Mind Baseball League Hall of Fame.

Players are eligible if they have played at least five years in the DMBL, have at least 3,000 career at-bats, 200 career starts or 300 career appearances, have not played in the DMBL for the previous five seasons, and have retired from baseball. Note that these values have changed from the previous years. As such, players who have received votes in prior years will remain on the ballot until they no longer receive enough votes. In exceptional cases, the commissioner may decree that a specific player is eligible. A player who does not receive any votes in two consecutive years will be removed from the ballot. Players who have been on the ballot after 10 years will be removed from the ballot the following year. A player needs to receive two-thirds of the votes cast in order to be inducted.

2010: Two players were elected this year -- Sacramento's Roberto Alomar, with 81 percent of the vote, and Arkansas's Juan Gonzalez, with 73 percent. Each was elected in his first year of eligibility. Alomar, regarded as one of the best second basemen in DMBL history, played 13 seasons and was a five-time All-Star. He hit .292 with a .794 OPS in 7,556 career ABs, and ranks 3rd in career hits, 3rd in career triples, and 5th in career stolen bases. "Juan Gone" played 12 years -- 10 of them with Arkansas. The two-time Mitchell Award winner was a six-time All-Star and the 1998 All-Star Game MVP. In 1994, he hit .330 with a 1.014 OPS, with 61 HR and 209 RBI. Carlos Baerga and John Olerud came up short at 55 percent.

2009: Vancouver's David Cone was the only player elected, with 71 percent of the vote. Carlos Baerga came close with 57 percent.

2008: Three players received enough votes to be elected to the second class of the DMBL Hall of Fame: Vancouver's Dennis Eckersley (88 percent), Tampa Bay Sweat Sox's Dennis Martinez (88 percent) and Austin's Ryne Sandberg (75 percent). Vancouver's David Cone just missed with 62 percent.

2007: In our first year of voting, four players received enough votes to be elected as the inaugural class of the Diamond Mind Baseball League Hall of Fame: Austin's Tony Gwynn (unanimous selection), Newark's Mark McGwire (86 percent), Austin's Albert Belle (71 percent) and Newark's John Wetteland (71 percent).

Note: Is your favorite player from the early years of the league missing from the ballot? Don't worry -- we have dedicated a special wing of the Hall of Fame to those pioneers who came first: The Stars of the Microleague Era! These players, nominated by the Commissioner, were judged to have made significant contributions to the early years of the league. These players will be discussed in a future article.

Eliminated!

Players who don't receive any votes after two years on the ballot are no longer eligible to be voted into the Hall of Fame. Their only hope is to be inducted into the Stars of the Microleague Era wing, or to be elevated to Hall of Fame status by special decree of the Commissioner himself. Maybe they can make it as broadcasters or managers!

The following players were eliminated from the ballot after not receiving any votes in 2009 or 2010: batters Joe Girardi; Bobby Higginson; Todd Hundley; Paul O'Neill; and Todd Zeile; and pitchers Kevin Appier; Pedro Astacio; Andy Benes; Chuck Finley; Darren Holmes; Ramiro Mendoza; Jose Mesa; Rick Reed; and Ismael Valdes.

The Batters

The following 25 batters are eligible for induction. Ten are eligible for the first time this year; four return from last year's ballot; four are on the ballot for a third year; two are on the ballot for the fourth time; and five remain from the inaugural 2007 ballot. As noted above, five batters were eliminated from last year's ballot after not receiving any votes in 2009 or 2010, and two players on last year's ballot were elected.

Noted below the player's name is the position, or positions, he was eligible at during his career. "Cap" is which team's cap the player would wear on his bust if inducted into the Hall of Fame, as determined by playing time, success and general public perception. "Best Season" is decided by a poll of major sportswriters. "Ballot" indicates when the player first became eligible to appear on a Hall of Fame ballot, and how many votes he received that year.

The Pitchers

The following 20 pitchers (6 starters and 14 relievers) are eligible for induction. Eleven are eligible for the first time this year; six became eligible last year; one is on the ballot for the third time; one is on the ballot for the fourth time; and one is still on the original ballot from 2007. As noted above, nine pitchers were eliminated from the ballot after not receiving a single vote in 2009 or 2010.

Noted below the player's name is if he was eligible as a starter or reliever, or both, during his career. "Cap" is which team's cap the player would wear on his bust if inducted into the Hall of Fame, as determined by playing time, success and general public perception. "Best Season" is determined by a poll of major sportswriters. "Ballot" indicates how many votes he received last year or if this is his first year on the ballot.
