Who's the next Blue Jay for the Hall?

With second baseman Roberto Alomar and former club architect Pat Gillick headed to Cooperstown this year, the Hall of Fame wait begins for several other men with ties to the Toronto Blue Jays.

Alomar was selected for induction into the National Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, N.Y., on Wednesday. He's the first player who racked up significant accomplishments with the Blue Jays to get in — the likes of Dave Winfield, Paul Molitor and Ricky Henderson sowed their Hall seeds before arriving in Toronto.

That would also be the case with aspiring entrants Jack Morris and Fred McGriff.

Morris won more games than any other pitcher in the 1980s, and had won World Series with Detroit and Minnesota before arriving in Toronto.

McGriff hit 493 home runs in his career with several clubs, with his most significant time coming with Atlanta. Other than the tainted Mark McGwire and Jose Canseco, he's the only player with at least 450 home runs not in the Hall of Fame.

Bobby Cox's managerial credits, meanwhile, are dominated by his success in Atlanta after a first stop in Toronto.

Which leaves three names with significant accomplishments while in Toronto who could head to the Hall.

Will allegations limit Clemens's chances?

Roger Clemens is eligible in 2013. Will the allegations of performance enhancing drug use hinder his chances of getting the call right away, as they have with sluggers like McGwire and Canseco?

It is the only possible reason to not vote for the power pitcher.

While Clemens did the majority of his most notable work with the Boston Red Sox and New York Yankees, he won the Cy Young Award in both of his seasons with Toronto.

Clemens went 41-13 as a Blue Jay, with 564 strikeouts. Of course, it is also the time he forged a bond with trainer Brian McNamee, who has accused him of using PEDs in multiple court hearings.

Is it possible that Roy Halladay goes 40-85 over the remainder of his career and squanders his chances? Unlikely, although as with all players, health could tell the tale.

Barring injuries, Halladay seems in line to win at least 250 games in his career, a benchmark in the modern game.

Halladay accomplished something this year that only Clemens and three other men had before — winning the Cy Young in both leagues.

Perfect game

Halladay's 21-10 record in his first season in Philadelphia included a perfect game in May, and he then made his postseason debut with a no-hitter. He was the first hurler in 37 years to throw a pair of no-hitters in the same year.

But his Toronto accomplishments won't be a mere footnote when his career is said and done. Halladay compiled a 148-76 record in more than a dozen years with Toronto, reaching the 20-win mark twice.

Cito Gaston won 894 games as a manager, and it's a select modern list of those who've won at least two World Series as a skipper.

Aside from the fact that Gaston has been underappreciated — he famously couldn't score a managerial gig after his first tenure with Toronto ended — there are other reasons to believe he'll have a tough road to the Hall.

Consider that Dick Williams, who made his managerial bones in the 1970s, just got in a couple of years ago, while the beloved Whitey Herzog had to go in through the Veterans Committee route last year.

Billy Martin, who turned around every team he managed, still isn't in.

Gaston's winning percentage is just .516 and he ranks far behind contemporaries Cox, Joe Torre and Tony LaRussa in total wins.
