Baseball Hall of Fame (or Shame)?

Baseball writers will soon be voting for eligible players to be enshrined in Baseball's Hall Of Fame. I'm always surprised why some players get elected to the Hall and their equals do not. How can it be that four players whose careers crossed paths for more than 20 years, had nearly identical career records and two are in the Hall Of Fame and two are not.

Don Sutton, Bert Blyleven, Ferguson Jenkins, and Jim Kaat all played for 20+ years and had very similar recors. Sutton and Jenkins are enshrined; Kaat and Blyleven are not.

How can a player such as Gary Carter be elected to the Hall Of Fame and not Jim Rice or Andre Dawson. How can a player who wins back to back MVP awards, Dale Murphy, not get stronger consideration. What about Jack Morris? For 10-12 years, Morris was the most dominant pitcher in baseball. It will be a shame if Morris does not get enshrined.
