Digest more
The National Baseball Hall of Fame has two new members, both of whom spent time — a short time — with the Texas Rangers. Outfielders Carlos Beltrán and Andruw Jones played less than 162 games combined with the Rangers.
The two biggest names on the ballot are Alex Rodríguez and Manny Ramírez. The PED suspensions they served during their careers are holding them back. A-Rod got 37.1% of the vote last year and is tracking at 42.7% this time. It's his fifth year on the ballot. As for Manny, this is his 10th and final try and he's tracking at 39.9%.
