In keeping with the 2007 rules changes, the Veterans Committee held one election to select managers and umpires, and another to select executives; one manager and one umpire were elected. Elections to select players were held prior to the 2009 inductions; the next election for players whose careers began in 1943 or later is scheduled for the 2011 class of inductees, while the next election for players active prior to that point is scheduled for the 2014 class.
