    Bill Bartholomay

    Skip Caray and Pete Van Wieren

    I know they'll be considered seperately but they both joined the team's broadcast booth for the 1976 season and were it's core for the next three decades.

    Those two guys were, simply, the voices that narrated the rise of the team from an after thought to their central place in the National League.

    Both members of the real Braves HOF.

    Ernie Johnson

    Hudson isn't eligible this round since we're not taking active players.

    Sorry.

    No worries. Stuff happens. My only reason for posting that was to provide an explanation as to why he wasn't being listed.

    We're now at the critical moment--the regulars have voted, and we have five votes when six are needed to elect anyone.

    We definitely made up some major ground with this franchise. It is good to see stars like Tenney, Clarkson and Burdette were not left on the outside looking in.
