Cafardo: Marlins have had interest in Ivan Nova
Thoughts prior to the 2016 Hall of Fame announcement

Tomorrow evening the 2016 Hall of Fame class will be announced (6pm ET on MLB Network). My guess is two players get in: Ken Griffey Jr. and Mike Piazza. Griffey’s a lock for induction — he’s at 100% on the public ballots so far — and Piazza received 69.9 percent of the vote last year. Historically, when a player gets that close, he gets voted in a year or two later. (Players need 75 percent for induction.) Roger Clemens, Mike Mussina, and Tim Raines are notable players on the ballot with ties to the Yankees. I think Raines falls just short and the other two well short. We’ll see.

Here is tonight’s open thread. The (hockey) Rangers and Knicks are playing, plus there’s all sorts of college hoops on as well. Talk about those games, the upcoming Hall of Fame announcement, or anything else here.
