Twins Hall of Fame ballot   Message List

Re: Twins Hall of Fame ballot

Good suggestions (Jimmie Hall).

For players, the three-year waiting period will start after the end of
their careers, not just their careers with the Twins. But Koskie will
be a good one to add. Unfortunately, he may not play again.
