The Veterans Committee inductions into the Baseball Hall of Fame were announced today. In are former MLB commissioner Bowie Kuhn, former Dodgers owner Walter O'Malley, managers Dick Williams and Billy Southworth and ex-Pirates owner Barney Dreyfuss. Among those missing the cut are ex-MLBPA head man Marvin Miller, manager Whitey Herzog and umpire Doug Harvey (the latter two each missed out by a single vote). Thoughts?

Herzog deserves to go in...

Williams was a good choice. Winner of 2 WS and took the pathetic Sox to the seventh game in 1967. Doug Harvey probably should be in as well.
