Veterans Committee to Consider 3 Expos
Not players, but people affiliated with the Montreal Expos.

Under revamped rules that have now created separate Veterans Committees voting on managers/umpires, executives and players, the National Baseball Hall of Fame announced on Thursday the finalists for this year in the first two categories: managers/umpires and executives.
On the ballot of 10 combining umpires and managers, former standout managers Whitey Herzog, Davey Johnson, Billy Martin, Dick Williams and Gene Mauch, plus umpire Doug Harvey, top the list.
On the ballot of 10 executives, Dodgers owner Walter O'Malley, Commissioner Bowie Kuhn, Marvin Miller, the former executive director of the Players Association, and former Dodgers and Padres executive Buzzie Bavasi, are a few of the highlights.

And John McHale.

A maximum of four inductees can be elected in each of those two categories and those, if any, will be announced on Dec. 3 during the first day of the annual Winter Meetings, this year to be staged in Nashville, Tenn. Any living electees will be part of a press conference at the Winter Meetings on Tuesday, Dec. 4.
