Who makes the MLB Hall of Fame 2019 class?

The last few years have been interesting because there have a ton of players get elected in the past 5 years, I think like 18 in that time span, but who do you think gets elected this year?
I think Mariano and Roy Halladay for sure get elected, along with Edgar Martinez as well, so that's 3. While it wouldn't surprise me if Mike Mussina falls short, I think he gets in this year, which will make 4. What do you guys think?
Also a little extra, if you were a voter, who would you vote to be in the Hall of Fame? For me, I would pick:
Mariano Rivera
Roy Halladay
Mike Mussina
Roger Clemens
Barry Bonds
Curt Schilling
Edgar Martinez
Fred McGriff
Larry Walker
Jeff kent

Barry Bonds needs to get in. Steroids don’t teach you how to hit like that

Mariano Rivera
Mike Mussina
Roger Clemens
Andy Pettitte
No one else is really worthy of being voted for

Bonds is the greatest baseball player of all time. Hope he gets in. I feel he will eventually. On a side note, I think Pete Rose deserves to be elected to the hall. I think that eventually happens as well. Due to many factors, including his failure to be truthful about the whole ordeal for so long, it might end up being posthumously. I'll never forget when he finally admitted it, because he knocked LSU off the cover of SI on the national issue after our first football NC in 45 yrs.

Good one. Probably should have given him more thought. Had great power numbers, excellent WAR, was an underrated base stealer, had a great arm in RF, OPS was excellent, NL batting title, 9x All Star, World Series Title. Good one.

McGriff ain’t HoF worthy.
I respectfully disagree. Got tremendous numbers even during a steroid era. 5x All Star, 4x Silver Slugger, 2x home run champ, World Series champ, was very good getting on base as well. Decent defender. I think he's a Hall of Famer.

MR is in.
I think BB and RC should be in, too. Even if you take out their stats after the steroid era they would be in.
Having said that, you asked who makes the class. The pretentious HOF voters are second only to the Heisman voters as far as having no logic to their decisions, so MR is the only one I can categorically say gets in.

Hopefully, players that were better than Harold Baines.

I really don’t think today’s voters understand what a Hall of Fame is. Mariano Rivera, Barry Bonds, and Roger Clemens is it. The others on that list should never even sniff the HOF.

A few weeks ago, Deadspin linked to that guy who keeps track of mailed in ballots and does some adjustments based on those voters being younger. Anyways, he seemed to think Rivera was a complete lock, with Halladay, Edgar Martinez, and Mussina also in. Pettite would be close. Bonds, Clemens, and Schilling didn't appear to have numbers yet but were all getting closer (although Schilling was moving at a slower rate).

Anyone remember these videos from the 1980s with McGriff?
Also, Bonds, Clemons, and McGuire are HOFs. Put them in

Wasn’t Baines a veteran committee decision?
Veteran players have their own sets of biases. They just aren’t pretentious assholes like the writers who turn in blank ballots because Pete Rose is an idiot.

Bonds and Clemens should but don’t think they will, at least not this year

They do allow you to recover quicker and increase your power. Give me and you steroids we still won’t hit like that, give a 3 time MVP steroids he puts up the video game numbers Bonds did. The shame of Bonds is that he didn’t need to do it same with ARod. You cheat the game you don’t deserve the honor for being in the HOF
