I am making the rounds.
In the interest of promoting our project on the 50 best players not in the Hall of Fame and also in the interest of writing for some big baseball sites, I have done a few guest posts in the past week.
I shared here a few days ago about my post for The Hardball Times on players who got one vote for the Hall of Fame. Now, I have a guest post up at High Heat Stats, the new de facto blog for Baseball-Reference.com.
I wrote about the Hall of Fame, of course, asking if it was time for the museum to create some more committees to deal with the backlog of candidates. Cooperstown, historically, has enshrined about two-thirds of its honorees through the use of committees, be it the Veterans or Negro League committees or others from the early days of the museum. I proposed a number of additional committees. I had fun with it.
Anyhow, I’m not sure if I’ll be doing any more guest posts ahead of the voting deadline for the project on December 1, but I’ll post here if I do.
Clever, Mr. Womack. Perhaps I should have done this as I prepped for my Hall of wWAR relaunch. 🙂
Hi Adam, thanks for this comment and for the one you left over at High Heat.
I definitely recommend writing for every major site you can, though BTB is definitely cool stuff. I don’t have the biggest site, but you’re welcome to do a post about Hall of wWAR here.
Oooh, I just may take you up on that. Perhaps after your Top 50 comes out so I can compare/contrast.
