Dick Allen
The greatest debate in sports is who belongs in the Baseball Hall of Fame. Let us know what you're thinking. With the new Veterans Committee rules, all players who appeared in games in at least 10 major league seasons (starting in 1876), who are not on Major League Baseball’s ineligible list, and who are not being considered by the Baseball Writers’ Association of America (BBWAA), are eligible for election. Managers, umpires and executives with 10 or more years in baseball are also eligible.
