Candidates need to receive votes on 75% of the ballots cast by the 16-member committee to become part of the 2026 Baseball Hall of Fame Class. The members of the committee will be announced later this fall, and the voting results will be announced live on MLB Network at 7:30 p.m. ET on Dec. 7. ------------ I don't see Bonds, Clemens, or Sheffield getting in... or Kent even. Best shot? Mattingly as a post-World Series sympathy vote?
It totally depends on who is on the committee The composition of the committee completely determines what the voters value and are willing to overlook.
