Jeff Kent? RUFKM? #BBHOF
Jeff Kent!?! #BBHOF
Nominations are open for the British Baseball Hall of Fame. There are three categories for induction: Baseball players; Coaches, managers, umpires, and other officials; and Game builders. More info at bbhof.org.uk: 'Induction categories and criteria'. #BBHOF #ProjectCOBB #BritishBaseball
Not upset by the logic of Manfred’s decision, though it’s classically uncourageous. But I still wouldn’t let Pete Rose, his corpse, or his ghost into the Hall of Fame. Let him haunt the Cooperstown memorabilia shops forevermore. #mlb #bbhof
Biggest Baseball Hall of Fame omission for me: Curt Flood. #BBHOF ⚾️
I'm eternally grateful that I had an opportunity to take this photo of Ichiro in Seattle in 2009, one of my all-time favorite players to watch. Congratulations on being part of the 2025 Baseball Hall of Fame class.

Don’t be the ONE sportswriter of the BBWAA who didn’t think Ichiro should be in the HOF. What a joke! #bbwaa #bbhof
So my guess is the one person who didn’t vote for Ichiro is the same one who didn’t vote for Derek Jeter? (/joke)

Glad @notmrtibbs.com is on Bluesky... always have enjoyed his tireless efforts to track #BBHOF ballots. Someone buy him a beverage of choice.
What kind of a shriveled husk of a soul do you have to have to not vote for Ichiro? #BBHOF
ICHIRO!!!!! #BBHOF Class of 2025
Good to see Andruw Jones finally getting over 70% support. Man should have been in ages ago. Next year hopefully #BBHOF
If there's room for a guy like Cap Anson, who fought tooth-and-nail to keep baseball segregated, and room for Gaylord Perry, who wrote a book about his cheating, and room for guys like Piazza and Pudge that we all know were juiced, then we can let Manny and A-Rod in #BBHOF #MLB
So excited so the Hall of Fame announcement in a few weeks. According to the HOF Tracker by @notmrtibbs.com and team, Ichiro (unanimous), CC, Beltran, and FINALLY Billy Wagner are tracking for enshrinement. Plus Andruw Jones is over 70%.
Lots of votes left, but that would be a great class!
#BBHOF
Feelings on #BBHOF ballot:
- Ichiro should be unanimous
- Sabathia not quite as good a candidate as thought but still should go in
- Don't love relievers in Hall but Wagner better than Hoffman/Smith
- Would def take Beltran over Andruw, even with the garbage-can banging
(cont'd)
Funny story. I saw my mail person in my neighborhood as I went to take this to the post office - and I drove it to the post office anyway. My #BBHOF ballot. As always, it’s an honor.
is he in the #Baseball #HallofFame which has no #NPB Nippon Professional Baseball only players yet #BBHOF purports to be not affiliated with @MLB ... BBHOF only enshrines former #MajorLeaguers cc. @benlindbergh.bsky.social @megrowler.fangraphs.com @sammillerbb.bsky.social
Yo! Dick Allen to the HoF. Long, long, long overdue.

Congrats Dave Parker and Dick Allen, the newest members of Baseball’s Hall of Fame. Disappointing Allen didn’t get in while he was still alive, but better late than never I guess. #BBHOF
