wagner, helton, beltre.  Jones continues progress. Mauer will be strong 1st timer but short, and Holliday will be in the low 20s.

Mauer is such a what could have been. There was a brief period of time when he was so much better than every other catcher that he was almost a guaranteed fantasy win. I think Beltre should get in and that's it from the whole list.

I think Yadi gets in before Mauer.

Mauer had a better case before he moved to first. I wonder if voters will forget his peak.

Koufax is the yardstick I would use in Mauer’s case.
