MLB Showdown: Hall of Fame 

               We had another interesting move this past week for #shotsfriday. @Tomwyliehart pulled it off yet again for the third straight week going deep. He actually forfeited his Miguel Cabrera pick to pick up Puig from the Dodgers. That puts him tied for the lead with 3 and gives him 1 for Puig. Remember the reward this year is going to be 3 custom cards of your choosing for winning. I am also saying 2 customs for second place and 1 for third place. Remember to send in your votes for who you think will hit a homer this Friday on twitter or in the comments and enjoy some fist pumping music and your favorite work appropriate beverage.


               Many of you are familiar with the MLB Hall of Fame. We around here have decided to run our own MLB Showdown Hall of Fame. The criteria is this: Cards you enjoyed. This can mean cards you thought were the most dominant. They could be cards that you had success with. Cards you thought were great representations of great players. Whatever reason you remembered a card feel free to vote. This is how we are going to run the Hall of Fame around here.

               1: Everyone is allowed to vote using Twitter or comments on the blog once per year. Every person gets 5 votes per year for 5 different players. Remember when voting to state the players first and last name and the year of the card you wish to vote for. Every year you may vote for the same players. You may also vote for the same player from multiple years.Votes reset after the MLB Hall of Fame voting has finished for that year. All players from the 2000,2001,2009, 2010,2011, 2012 sets as well as our custom cards are currently eligible.

               2: The first 10 players to receive 5 votes will be entered into the Hall of Fame. The next 10 to receive 6 votes will be entered. With each 10 members needing 1 more vote than the 10 before.

               I hope you all take a moment to cast your votes for players that made your Showdown experience exciting. You may send the votes to my twitter @MLBshowdownguru using #HOF or just comment below. Here is a list of current players and votes.
