Yes, it's been a terrible year for Chicagoans with Ernie's passing in January and now Minnie's passing today. (The first black Cub and first black White Sox players passing away within about five weeks of one another).
Like Ron Santo, maybe Minnie's HOF campaign will gain traction posthumously. It's still a shame that he wasn't elected in his lifetime.
