As it stands, once you are eligible to vote for the Hall of Fame, you get that vote for life, which means that a great many voters who are no longer covering baseball — including many who never really covered baseball in a meaningful way — get a vote

Hall of Fame decides BBWAA members more than 10 years removed from actively covering the game can no longer vote for Hall of Fame.

Does this mean Bonds will be in the Hall now?

WOO HOO!

A voting change that actually makes sense! It's a Christmas miracle! Getting rid of some of the angry Boomers off of the BBWAA voting rolls will help deal with the back log of candidates.

If you ever actually visit the Hall of Fame in Cooperstown you'll wonder why people are clamoring to get into that shite-hole.
