My money is on the negative popularity. What's it called, "Disliked," when somebody is suspended for drugs in the game? If the MLB modders assigned that rating to these villains, that could do the trick. I believe I recall that HoF voting results are partly based on popularity, come to think of it.

I honestly do not know. My setup is so that my vote is one of many. And what's crazy is how many of the known/rumored steroid users struggle in the HOF voting. Bonds, Clemens, and ManRam are the only ones to make it in so far.
My guess has to be something with the personality or my lack of voting for them. Either way, its fun to watch.
