50% of the vote to remain on ballot
Max 4 ballots
Voting deadline = Trade deadline
Unlimited votes per owner
2nd Ballot:
Milt Horn - CF - MIN
Milt could be better know as Minny 300 as he spent his entire career in the Land of Lakes while surpassing 300 home runs and steals and having a career average over .300. He won the Rookie of the Year award back in 2015 then ran off 5 straight All-Star appearances late in his career. He was also the 2027 AL MVP and won 2 batting titles.
1st Ballot:
Bill Smith - 2B - KC
Smith started 20 seasons for the Monarchs piling up some hardware along the way. In the end, he holds the all-time record in hits (3674), games played(3106), at bats (12449) and triples (181). He finished with plenty of home runs (494, 11th all-time), RBI's (2054, 2nd all-time), runs (1979, 2nd all-time), stolen bases (637, 11th all-time), and doubles (546, 7th all-time). He won 2 MVP awards, 3 gold gloves and played in 16 All-Star games. He will not be missed in the AL outside of KC.
Shawn Gooch - SP - WAS
This 4 time all-star helped him team to 2 World Series appearances but couldn't bring home the title. He enjoyed 2 20-win seasons and finished with 197 overall. The Gooch held down the rotation for a long time in Washington and was a key figure in their success.
