On to the ATG 8 poll. Thanks to everyone who recommended a player to add to ATG 8. This time, only players who are not currently in the ATG player set were available. The 40 eligible nominated players are listed below. Only 20 of these will make it in.

Harry Agganis, 1955
Roger Nelson, 1972
Alex Fernandez, 1993

Clayton Kershaw, 2013
Vernon Wells, 2003
Luis Gonzalez, 2001
Mike Adams, 2009
Candy Cummings, 1875
You can find the vote here.
Only one change, BDWard had nominated Magglio Ordonez 2002 and but then reconsidered and changed to Miguel Tejada since someone later had nominated Ordonez' 2007 season. So I took the 2007 nomination but Candy Cummings 1875 season was nominated the night before Tejada, so I took the Cummings nomination instead.
We got more than a few pitchers this time so that was nice to see. And Steve F, I actually do enjoy going through these nominations!
Each user can only vote for 5 players and the top 20 with votes will get added to ATG 8. The winners will be announced in next Thursday's blog. It will take a couple weeks after the vote is complete to add them to the player set just as in the first addition.
That's all I have for this week, as always if anyone has any questions please let us know at onlinegamesupport@strat-o-matic.com. Talk to you all next Thursday!
