We all have personal preferences of guys who should be in the HOF. Some players have the numbers and it bothers you that they haven't been honored. Otherwise if they don't deserve it, you might have a soft spot in your heart for them.

For example, for some time I have been hoping Bert Blyleven would get into the hall. I am sure there are plenty of Twins fans in the same boat as myself. But recently I have found another player that I wish was in before Bert. Buck O'Neil has now become the #1 snubbed person I wish would get into the hall. I am sure he will get in next time, but it is a joke that he was denied last year with a lot of other negro leaguers entering. I am sure he will get put in next time, but it is a shame he is no longer alive to enjoy it.

So I ask: Who is your #1 snubbed person who you wish would be elected into the Hall of Fame?
