Cast your own MLB HOF ballot: The results are in
Nick Roy / theScore
We tasked theScore's users with casting their own ballot ahead of Tuesday's 2021 Hall of Fame announcement, and the results weren't good for players seeking enshrinement.
Not a single player earned the necessary 75% of the vote from the nearly 12,000 participants. Here's how the 21 eligible candidates fared:
| Player | % of Vote |
|---|---|
| Roger Clemens | 65.7% |
| Barry Bonds | 64.7% |
| Curt Schilling | 56.3% |
| Manny Ramirez | 51% |
| Gary Sheffield | 47.5% |
| Andy Pettitte | 45% |
| Sammy Sosa | 40.9% |
| Andruw Jones | 40.8% |
| Jeff Kent | 35.2% |
| Omar Vizquel | 35% |
| Billy Wagner | 31.6% |
| Todd Helton | 31.2% |
| Torii Hunter | 27.2% |
| Mark Buehrle | 25.5% |
| Scott Rolen | 25.3% |
| Bobby Abreu | 13.7% |
| Tim Hudson | 12.3% |
| Barry Zito | 10.8% |
| A.J. Burnett | 10.3% |
| Nick Swisher | 7.1% |
| Shane Victorino | 6.8% |
| LaTroy Hawkins | 4.9% |
| Aramis Ramirez | 4.2% |
| Michael Cuddyer | 3.2% |
| Dan Haren | 2.2% |
The results from theScore's 17 voting news editors ended up being more generous, as three players received enough votes to get inducted. Sammy Sosa and Manny Ramirez were one vote short of making the cut.
| Player | % of vote |
|---|---|
| Roger Clemens | 88% |
| Barry Bonds | 88% |
| Scott Rolen | 76% |
The Hall of Fame election announcement takes place Tuesday at 6 p.m. ET.
