The voting for the National Baseball Hall of Fame is always a special time in the offseason. Players who had long, successful careers had the dreams of their names etched into the Cooperstown halls come true. It’s also a time for debate. The Baseball Hall of Fame is one of the most talked about in all sports. This year has been no different.

The 2024 National Baseball Hall of Fame class is Adrián Beltré, Joe Mauer, and Todd Helton.

With 95.1% of the vote and as the lead vote getter, Beltré gets in on his first year on the ballot. He accumulated over 3,000 hits (3,166) and 466 home runs in his career, with a .286 batting average. Beltré made four All-Star teams and won four Silver Sluggers and five Gold Gloves in his 21-year career.

Mauer is regarded as one of the best catchers of all time and arguably the greatest of his generation, right next to Buster Posey. With 76.1% of the vote, Mauer joins fellow Hall of Fame catchers such as Mike Piazza, Gary Carter, Yogi Berra, and Johnny Bench in Cooperstown. Mauer spent his entire 15-year career with the Twins and became the face of sports in the Twin Cities. He won an MVP in 2009, made six All-Star teams, three Gold Gloves, five Silver Sluggers, and the batting title on three occasions. He finished his career with a .306 batting average, scoring 1,018 runs, 923 RBI, and 143 home runs.

Helton, aka Mr. Colorado Rockie, was just ahead of Mauer with 79.1% of the vote. Playing in Coors Field, especially for your entire career, can hamper a player’s chances of getting into the Hall of Fame, but not for Helton. The face of the Rockies for 17 years, he made five All-Star teams, won three Gold Gloves, four Silver Sluggers, and a batting title. He smashed 316 home runs and drove in 1,406 RBI with a .316 batting average throughout his career. As he joins Larry Walker in that club, Helton is the second Rockie to enter Cooperstown in the franchise’s history.

The trio will join Jim Leyland in getting inducted to the Hall of Fame this summer.

Billy Wagner fell just five votes short of induction (73.8%), but he’ll have his 10th and final chance next year.
