Here's Your 2018 Baseball Hall of Fame Class

Headlined by enormous names like Barry Bonds and Roger Clemens, the Baseball Writers Association of Amer—hahahaha just kidding, two of the best to ever play their respective positions are still not in Cooperstown. Instead, the Baseball Writers Association of America announced that Chipper Jones, Vladimir Guerrero, Jim Thome, and Trevor Hoffman will enter the Hall. Edgar Martinez missed the cut by 19 votes, less than 5 percent.

Chipper and Thome get the extra distinction of becoming first-ballot Hall-of-Famers, and Chipper gets another layer of distinction thanks to those stacked 90s Atlanta Braves teams:

Martinez was subject to extensive (and stupid) debate because he was primarily a designated hitter, which for whatever reason gets treated as a weird anomaly by many voters, even though, you know, it is a position allowed under American League rules and as Tom Verducci pointed out, no one seems to care about specialization when it comes to relief pitchers. You can see just how lopsided this view is by the significant drop-off between Trevor Hoffman's voting percentage and Edgar's.

And, obviously, it needs to once again be mentioned what a silly and unnecessary disgrace it is that Barry Bonds and Rogers Clemens are still on the outside looking in. It is a perpetual embarrassment that the most feared hitter of a generation, and the freaking Home Run King is not a Hall-of-Famer. Roger Clemens struck out 4,672 batters over his career and he's not in the Hall of Fame, but Rollie Fingers is.

The class of four will be inducted on July 28, 2018.
