Next Monday, 03-Dec, the Hall Of Fame will announce the results of the upcoming Veterans Committee Managers & Umpires ballot. This is one of the first two ballots under the newly revised VC, which the Hall announced in July following the third straight shutout by the old VC in February. This ballot is limited to ten candidates, as follows:
Managers
Whitey Herzog
Davey Johnson
Billy Martin
Gene Mauch
Danny Murtaugh
Billy Southworth
Dick Williams
Umpires
Doug Harvey
Hank O'Day
Cy Rigler
Like the real voters, limit yourself to no more than four Yes votes. So, who here in your opinion merits election to the Hall?
Special caveat: anyone voicing support of Billy Martin MUST explain their reasoning. A simple "he managed the Yankees to a championship" isn't nearly good enough. (I'd prefer explanations for any candidate, but for Martin I must insist on some real evaluative thinking.)
