Jonathan Papelbon makes his debut on the Hall of Fame ballot this year. Relievers generally don’t get much love from the BBWAA, so let’s take a look at Papelbon’s case and see if he will be elected.
Jake Peavy pitched for 15 years in the majors. While his career was kind of a roller coaster, overall, he put up some pretty solid numbers and had a very good peak. Will it be enough to get him some votes?
His smile was infectious and he earned the nickname “Spiderman” for his wall-climbing ability. He was a pretty good hitter as well. Let’s take a look at his case for Cooperstown.
Carl Crawford makes his first and likely only appearance on the Hall of Fame ballot this season. His case for induction is interesting, albeit not the strongest.
Jimmy Rollins makes his debut on the Hall of Fame ballot this year. The long-time Phillies shortstop has a compelling case for induction. Does he belong in Cooperstown?
Barry Bonds is a polarizing figure when it comes to Hall of Fame discussions. On his final ballot, will the all-time home run leader get into Cooperstown?
For the fourth time, first baseman Todd Helton is on the Hall of Fame ballot. While he is not expected to be inducted this year, the long-time Rockie has made progress towards Cooperstown.
If you had to pick a recent pitcher who embodies the term “crafty lefty”, Mark Buehrle would be at the front of the line. Does he get into Cooperstown?
Tim Hudson is on the ballot for the second time this year. Although he flew under the radar during his career, enough voters felt he deserved another shot. Can Hudson make some gains this year?
Roger Clemens is on the ballot for the 10th and final time this year. His statistics are easily Cooperstown-worthy, but obviously, there are other things to consider. Still needing an extra 13.4 percent of the vote and time running out, can the Rocket finally get in?
Jeff Kent is on the ballot for the ninth time this year. He managed to get to 32.4 percent last year and would need a huge boost to make the 75 percent needed. Is he Cooperstown worthy?
Omar Vizquel is on the ballot for the fifth year. While he started out great, he saw his support wane as he went from 52.6 percent in 2019 to 49.1 percent last year. Let’s take a look at his chances for Cooperstown.
