Joe Saunders never made 100 Wins. He never threw 1,000 Strikeouts. He did not make a double digit bWAR. He will not make the ballot.
158. Jason Giambi

While Jason Giambi is better known as an inflated PED user, the fact remains that he was a very good hitter and a former American League MVP. Giambi would go to five consecutive All-Star Games and blast 440 Home Runs with a .516 career Slugging Percentage over a twenty-year career. He would also show solid plate discipline with three On Base Percentage Titles and retired with a very good 50.4 bWAR.
As we predicted, Giambi did not escape the first ballot. That is a shame, as he had a career worthy of a second look from Cooperstown.

There is a good chance that Jason Bartlett will not make the ballot, as he is well under 1,000 Hits for his career. Still, he is a former one time All Star who had decent defensive skills, which brought him to a 18.4 bWAR.
