His ballot is way better than yours. Every single person he named has, at worst, a very credible Hall of Fame case. The Hall has systematically under-enshrined players from the expansion era (1961) onwards. Someone like Fred Lynn, Dale Murphy or even Johnny Damon is better than a good half dozen Hall of Fame center fielders for example. Andruw Jones, Carlos Beltran and Kenny Lofton are better than about 10 Hall of Fame center fielders (old favorite Dewey Evans is also better than about 10 Hall of Fame right fielders, including no-doubters like Vlad Guerrero and Dave Winfield). The weakest candidate he named is probably Fred McGriff, and McGriff has a better WAR and JAWS than Orlando Cepeda. Helton ranks above Hank Greenberg, Harmon Killebrew, Bill Terry, and George Sisler.
At some point, I think you have to question where the line used to be and why it's shifted up, and whether it does the Hall of Fame and the fans of the game a disservice that somebody who played on color television, and was seen by you, me, or other living people not yet receiving Social Security is out, but the same player (who also played when the game systematically excluded much of its current talent on racial lines) from 1925 is in.
Nuance is needed, because WAR and JAWS aren't perfect: they don't like Jeff Kent at all but LOVE Willie Randolph. They LOVE Rick Reuschel. I'm skeptical about that. But as blunt instruments, I'm willing to allow them to filter who has a credible case and then examine each person individually after that. And it's a lot of people.
Rolen should be on anyone's top 10 though. Tenth best third baseman ever by WAR and JAWS, better by a hair than Edgar (who gets labelled a 3B). Obviously a better and more durable defender than Edgar, excellent hitter. Played longer than people remember, people forget he was in the 2010 Reds team that made the playoffs.
