For the 2022 Hall of Fame Tracker, with lengthy analysis of each player’s case, click HERE.

This Hall of Fame tracker is here to tell us what active players are on pace to make the Hall of Fame.

This is done by looking at EVERY Hall of Famer (elected as a player), and looking at their fWAR, and comparing it to what a Hall of Famer accomplishes at their age.

People think of the Hall of Fame as Babe Ruth, and not Earl Averill. But Earl is a Hall of Famer in the same standing.

It’s easy-ish to identify future Hall of Famers like a Trout or a Kershaw – but fierce arguments underneath them. It’s kind of silly. Trout and Kershaw are easy pics, however when with think of the Hall in Ruthian terms, we try to measure players up to that standard of legend, where most if not all of the very best fall short. That’s not what the Hall has proven to be historically.

The tracker looks at the whole of the Hall, and then goes down to the 33% – that is, it’s kicking out 1/3 of ALL Hall of Famers, and saying once you pass them – your career has a solid argument for enshrinement. As of 2023, this level is 52.2 fWAR.

There are 30-50 active players who will one day make the Hall of Fame – probably over the next 50 years. But the Hall never stops voting, and one you’re in – you’re in. So if there’s a player who is viewed as a fringe player on the outside, rest assured, they will get in. Someday. Eventually. Looking at you, Dick Allen.

This isn’t about feelings. This isn’t about intangibles. The trackers makes no judgment for a player if they’ve made mean tweets about caterpillars, or if their body is 97% testosterone and covered in needle marks, or if they are the cause of Oscar the Grouch’s PTSD diagnosis from his house getting repeatedly smashed every time an opposing pitcher threw them a slider. Nothing here says this guy is guaranteed to make it, or this guy won’t. This is simply a look at the players who are on (or within 2 years of being on) a Hall of Fame pace for their age. There’s no position adjustment – because this isn’t meant to be an exact science. If you ended last year within 2 years of the HOF pace, you’re tracked here. If you fall back to 3 years behind, buh bye.

The tracker updates 10 times a season.

Age 21
Avg HOF Season: 1.4
Min Career: 0.2
WAR HOF Career Pace: 1.9

Francisco Alvarez -0.3 // -0.3 – FALLEN OFF TRACKER-
–Feel bad taking him off – he’s supposed to be in the minor leagues! But a 1 for 16 start in this small of a career will put your WAR in the negatives.

Age 22
Avg HOF Season: 2.3
Min Career: 0.8
WAR HOF Career Pace: 3.8

Vaughn Grissom -0.1 // 0.6
–Getting big league ABs after the Arcia injury – he’s a -2 DRS after 36 innings! Yes, hard to have a smaller sample size than that, and he didn’t have a huge sample size last year, but it was pretty bad at 2B. Sensing a trend. But he can hit.

Riley Greene 0.0 // 0.8
–He has 2 triples already! and hit 4 last year in just 93 games. It’s seems strange for his projection, but especially playing in Detroit, we’re looking at a guy who is going to get double figures in triples at home point in his career. maybe multiple times.

Gunner Henderson 0.1 // 0.9
–16 walks in 132 PAs last year, which is a very good amount, especially for an MLB call up. This year he has 13 in 59 PAs. Insane.

Corbin Carroll 0.4 // 1.8
–Ladies and gentlemen, the new face of the Arizona Diamondbacks has 4 homers and 6 stolen bases through 1/10th of the season. You do the math.

Michael Harris II 0.0 // 4.8 DL
–Rumor is he can start swinging again in the next few days. I’ll hold off as long as I can before I start pointing out any regression statistics since I kept waiting for them last year and it never came.

Julio Rodriguez 0.5 // 5.9
–18 hits on the year. 9 are for extra bases. FOUR are infield hits. Nuts.

Wander Franco 1.2 // 5.9
–Laughing at everyone who gave up on him, and laughing harder at people saying he can’t be this good. This is what everyone told you to expect. But I admit, him “sleeping wrong” getting a stiff neck and going 0-4 gives me JD Drew promise and disappointment flashbacks.

Age 23
Avg HOF Season: 2.3
Min Career: 0.8
WAR HOF Career Pace: 3.8

Roansy Contreras 0.3 // 1.4
–His velocity decline last year caused some concerns – it’s still down. Way down. 1.5 mph under last year’s average. Hmm.

Geraldo Perdomo 0.7 // 1.6
–Perdomo has a 1.042 OPS, if you’re wondering how seriously you should be taking stats right now.

Hunter Greene 0.6 // 2.2
–He’s given up 3 doubles hit less than 90 miles per hour, if you’re wondering how his luck is going. So far his rate stats look great. Reds just gave him a 6 year extension. They know he’s good.

Reid Detmers 0.3 // 2.4
–Detmers has struck out at least 1 batter per inning in all 3 of his starts this year, which is continuing a trend of increased strikeouts he saw as the season went on last year.

Bobby Witt 0.5 // 2.8
–You know SSS and all, but I was concerned about his position change, and his walk rate last year both leading to terrible defense and, well, terrible hitting. One removal of Mike Matheny later, and so far he’s played nothing but SS and his walk rate is 50% higher. A change in mangers might have saved his potential.

Age 24
Avg HOF Season: 4.0
Min Career: 3.8
WAR HOF Career Pace: 9.6

Isaac Parades 0.3 // 2.3
–For a high walk, no batting average guy, Parades has strangely been the opposite this year. He’s swinging a lot more, never ever walking, hitting over .250 – which is stunning for him! and….same results. 117 wRC+ last year, 116 this year.

Andres Munoz 0.1 // 2.3
–Munoz was fine in his 4 appearances, but not lights out. His DL stint seems short, and even though he got a save from day one, Paul Sewald is pitching well in the closers role, and is the most used reliever in the league right now. So Seattle isn’t looking for a change even if Munoz returns to being a premier middle reliever.

Alejandro Kirk 0.0 // 3.8
–For most guys hitting .243, they can’t be mocked for not hitting their weight. For most guys.

Dylan Carlson 0.2 // 5.1
–Well, if you made a bet for your life that Dylan was going to end up in the Hall of Fame, I have news for you. He’s basically a 5th outfielder right now playing behind a guy who is playing out of position. So, the stock…isn’t high.

Spencer Strider 0.6 // 5.4
–I went on and on about how historically amazing Striders 13.81K/9 was in his recap last year. So far this year it’s 15.19.

Andres Gimenez 0.5 // 8.6
–I saw some commentary that Gimenez was lucky, with the evidence being his .354 BABIP last year. So far this year it’s .353. He’s the real deal. He may not get 6 WAR a year, because that’s an absurd level to reach, but he’s one of the most complete players in baseball.

Vladimir Guerrero Jr. 0.6 // 9.7
–Walk rate in his awesome 2021: 12.3%
Walk rate in his other 3 years: 8.9,8.2,8.2
Walk rate so far this year: 11.5
Not surprisingly his wRC+ in 2021 was 166, and his wRC+ to start this year is a 166.

Fernando Tatis Jr. 0.0 // 13.6 DL
–His return is imminent. He destroyed minor league pitching. His team needs him. It’s the perfect scenario for a guy who needs a major PR recovery. The only question is has he avoided those dastardly PED causing haircuts.

Juan Soto 0.1// 22.9
–15 games into his age 40 season, after coming back from injury, Ted Williams was hitting .157. That’s the best I could do for a Teddy Ballgame comparison to Soto, who is currently hitting .164. Not at age 40. In the beginning of his prime.

Age 25
Avg HOF Season: 4.5
Min Career: 6.4
WAR HOF Career Pace: 13.1

Ian Anderson 0.0 // 3.8 DL – FALLEN OFF TRACKER-
—Tommy John surgery, out for the year, after being assigned to AAA anyway. It’s a low place for Ian Anderson, and I have to wonder if we’ll ever be talking about him again.

Jazz Chisolm Jr. 0.0 // 4.3
–39% k rate, and 57.6 gb%. I’m going to assume this is a SSS issue from a guy returning from a long injury, and not point out that both of those are signs of a troubled back.

Steven Kwan -0.1 // 4.3
–Kwan has made contact with 100% of strikes he’s swung at so far this season. I mean, that’s pretty cool.

Gavin Lux 0.0 // 4.4 DL – FALLEN OFF TRACKER-
–Gavin initially said he planned on coming back this year, which no one else seemed to believe. Lux has since admitted he won’t play this year, and instead will sit around and play video games – that’s not a joke. Glad Lux will get to live the typical life of a 24 year old.

Mike Soroka 0.0 // 4.9 DL
–2 AAA outings with 7.2 innings and 2 ER so far, most importantly, he hasn’t had to be hospitalized. He might actually be close to coming back? Just hoping his achilles is in witness protection, or something.

EmmanuelClase 0.0 5.0
–Really strange to see Clase with an 3.00 ERA, even after 9 innings. Even scarier 2 of those runs came against the Oakland A’s. How does that happen? I mean he’s fine – 4 straight scoreless outings. But the A’s scored off of him? TWICE? I feel betrayed.

Triston McKenzie 0.0 5.3 DL
–Supposed to miss 2 months. He was put on the 60 day DL – so he’ll absolutely miss two months – but I’m a bit fascinated by the news of how quickly he’s recovering from injury, what with his strange alien body.

Trevor Rogers 0.1 // 5.5
–I read a random comment last year that Rogers needed to learn to pitch inside more. Last year Rogers hit 5 batters. So far this year he’s leading the league with 3, so I hope that guy’s happy.

Alek Manoah -0.3 // 5.8
–15 walks in 19 innings. 51 walks all last season. Something is wrong here.

Adley Rutschman 1.0 // 6.3
–His start has been incredible. .481 OBP from your catcher. 16 league leading walks. 4 home runs, for a guy who gets pitched around. .344 average. I’m guessing by the All Star break there won’t be a debate anymore about who is the best C in the game.

Luis Robert 0.7 // 7.3
–4 2B and 5HR after 12 games this year. It took 49 games for him to reach those levels last year.

Bo Bichette 0.9 // 12.7
–Bo led the league in hits in 2021 and 2022, and he’s leading the league in hits this year with 28 (including career #500). Call Vegas now, safe bet.

Ronald Acuna Jr.1.1 // 19.5
–Speaking of leading the league in hits this year, Acuna has been awesome. Last year I told you to ignore small sample sizes and focus on if his sprint speed improved, and if he would start hitting the ball on the ground less. Those would be the signs he was back.

Well, he’s slowed down a bit and it hitting the ball on the ground more.

So let’s assume I’m just 100% completely wrong, and he actually is back…but yeah that’s concerning to me. His success has been built around a crazy reduction in strikeouts. Not sure how sustainable that is.

Age 26
Avg HOF Season: 5.0
Min Career: 9.6
WAR HOF Career Pace: 17.1

Nico Hoerner 0.5 // 6.9
–20 steals last year, 9 already this year. Someone likes those pizza box looking monstrosities.

Ke’Bryan Hayes 0.1 // 7.0
–Boy I spend a lot of words last year talking about how Hayes has no top end velocity, but very high exit velocities nonetheless. Only issue is he just grounds them up the middle. His GB/FB last year was 1.71. It’s 1.04 this year. His hard hit % is 4.5 points higher. As a result, his ISO is a .143, compared to last year’s .101. Thanks for reading, Ke’Bryan.

Daulton Varsho 0.3 // 7.4
–0 XBH hits in 5 home games so far, off-season chatter was all about how he was going to love his new home ball park.

Trent Grisham 0.3 // 7.5
–4 2B and 4HR leading a surprising burst of power. Only 33 xbh all last season.

Luis Arraez 0.9 // 8.0
–Well, I mean, the best pure hitter in baseball, and last year’s AL batting champion is batting .455 in Miami where the Venezuelan fans absolutely went nuts for him in the WBC (Miami has the largest Venezuelan population in the country). If he keeps hitting well, I’m going to be staring at the attendance figures to see what changes happen. Opening day is an outlier in the data, but so far they are averaging 3K more a game. He could become a local legend.

Logan Webb 0.2 // 9.6
–He’s 0-4 with an ERA near 5 to start the season. But the Giants just gave him 90 million dollars. So he’s having a good year.

Gleyber Torres 0.5 // 10.8
Walked 39 times last season. He’s walked 13 this year. 21% walk rate. Like, I don’t know what to do with that.

Austin Riley 0.5 // 10.9
313 total bases in 2021, league leading 325 total bases last year, on pace for 340 this year.

Kyle Tucker,1.1 // 12.2
Tucker has started on fire with a 1.016 OPS. He’s underperforming his xwOBA by almost 50 points, so I guess he’s been unlucky, too.

Julio Urias,0.6 // 13.4
3 wins in 4 starts, including career win #50, with a sub 2 ERA. Being a good pitcher for the Dodgers bodes well for the career totals.

Yordan Alvarez0.7 // 14.7
4 HR on the year, including career HR #100. With how he’s rolling, bet it’s not his last milestone.

Ozzie Albies 0.0 // 15.2
Hit career HR 100 – and maybe cooler, hit career HR 101 off of future HOF Zack Greinke.

Rafael Devers0.7 // 18.8
League leading 7 HR is no surprise. Hits the ball harder than almost anyone. Could be heading toward a monster campaign.

Age 27
Avg HOF Season: 5.1
Min Career: 13.1
WAR HOF Career Pace: 21.2

Sandy Alcantara 0.5 // 13.7
–Last year’s Cy Young winner is sitting with an ERA near 6 after getting bombed by the Phillies following a 3 hit shutout. Throwing a complete game in just his 2nd start suggests new skip Skip (Schumaker) plans to ride his arm to the bitter end, same as last year.

Willy Adames 0.6 // 14.3
–Adames is on pace for 28.5 home runs. In his career his 162 game average is 27. He’s hitting .254. For his career he has a .255 average. So, you know, this is who he is.

Cody Bellinger 0.4 // 17.7
–Well yesterday Cody was hitting .245, and it didn’t seem like the old Cody had a chance of coming back. Then he faced the A’s and went 5-5, and now he’s hitting .310. Everyone who has ever been to college knows that sometimes a slump buster is all you need.

Age 28
Avg HOF Season: 4.9
Min Career: 17.1
WAR HOF Career Pace: 25.1

Tommy Edman, 0.1 // 13.3
–Has 7 hits right handed and 7 hits left handed. Difference is, he’s had 35 more at bats left handed, where he’s hitting .156 as opposed to .700 right handed.

Yoan Moncada, 0.4 // 14.0
–Is last year’s nightmare over? .440 average with 4 doubles and 2 HR in first 6 games. Then he went 1-14 and missed a few games from injury. So maybe not.

Corbin Burnes, 0.1 // 14.4
–For however ugly his early season numbers look, his xERA last year was 3.08 and his xERA this year is 3.08

Walker Buehler, 0.0 // 15.1 DL
–Started throwing from 60 feet, and there’s still a chance he returns this year. So I’ve got to keep coming up with things to say about him. Yay.

German Marquez, 0.2 // 17.5 DL
–2 out of his 3 starts he’s given up 0 home runs and 0 walks. He could be back to his old form. Except…he’s hurt. And should be back soon. But it sort of resets expectations.

Shane Bieber, 0.7 // 19.5
–4 starts, 4 quality starts from one of the most dependable pitchers in the game. Also, 4 wild pitches from a guy who has never had more than 6 in a season. Some catcher needs to be fired.

Shohei Ohtani, 0.9 // 23.8
–Well, his ERA is 0.86, and there’s been no home runs. I mean, he’s hit 2 himself, but he hasn’t given up a home run. And there was the WBC. How does anyone not make a special trip to the ballpark just to see him?

Carlos Correa, 0.0 // 31.3
–He’s hitting .208 and has missed 4 games from injury. The Mets and Giants have small smiles on their faces so far.

Age 29
Avg HOF Season: 4.8
Min Career: 21.2
WAR HOF Career Pace: 28.9

Byron Buxton, 0.2 // 28.9
–Career HR 100, and he’s already managed to play in 15 games this year. I probably would have taken the under.

Matt Olson, 0.9 // 19.0
–11 XBH, a 168 wRC+, so that makes him what, the Braves 6th best hitter?

Cory Seager, 0.5 // 26.7
–He was destroying everything! .359 average! Then he destroyed his hamstring. Most reports say “at least a month” some say 2 months, but that may be because everything is bigger in Texas.

Alex Bregman, 0.3 // 31.3
–While you’re looking at the sub .200 average, I’ll point out his xwOBA is the highest of his career at .374. So thinking things will even out sooner rather than later.

Lindor, Francisco 1.0 // 43.0
–League leading 17 RBI has him 2 away from 600 for his career. Is 600 a milestone? Eh, it is today.

Age 30
Avg HOF Season: 4.6
Min Career: 25.1
WAR HOF Career Pace: 32.6

Javy Baez, -0.2 // 23.6
–You know, Baez may not run out doubles, or have any idea how many outs there are, but I bet he’s plenty ready to run out his time in Detroit and knows exactly how many years are left.

Trevor Story, 0.0 // 23.7 DL
–He’s started playing catch on his way to eventually being the Red Sox DH, he’s been a league average hitter for 2 years. I’m still not sure this is a positive?

Matt Chapman, 1.1 // 25.1
–He’s hitting .410 with a slugging percentage over 700. If he has a 5 or 6 WAR year, I think you’re looking at a good candidate for eventual “high peak” Hall induction

Aaron Nola, 0.5 // 30.4
–Nola struggled in the postseason, and he’s struggled so far this season with a 5.91 ERA, but he’s still got great control, suppressing homers, and has a FIP over 2 runs better, so I see bad luck, or bad Phils defense and nothing wrong with him.

Trea Turner, 0.6 // 32.2
–Ho hum, hitting .338 with an OBP near .400. When people talk about the best players in the game, if they don’t quickly named Turner, they don’t know what they’re talking about.

Xander Bogaerts, 1.2 // 35.4
–In last year’s peak season his BABIP was a crazy high .362. So far in SD he’s been red hot, and already has 1.2 WAR. His BABIP? .362. Maybe last year wasn’t such an outlier…

Jose Ramirez, 0.6 // 41.8
–Took a strange amount of time for Jose to hit his 1st home run – but it was a 420 foot blast he his 110 mph. So, yeah he’ll be ok.

Bryce Harper, 0.0 // 44.2 DL
–He’s about to take live batting practice, and I’m seeing all sort of stupid click bait articles about how I’ll NEVER BELIEVE WHAT POSITION BRYCE HARPER MIGHT PLAY. It’s 1st base, and I believe it. Everyone believes it you freaking jerks.

Manny Machado, 0.0 // 46.6
–4 extra base hits and 5 double plays so far. What a great way to start this new contract!

Mookie Betts, 0.9 // 51.0
–Mookie just went on paternity leave. Hey, know what was 9 months ago? The All-Star Break! Coincidence, I know.

Age 31
Avg HOF Season: 4.3
Min Career: 28.9
WAR HOF Career Pace: 36.1

Kris Bryant, -0.1// 32.1
–We are 1.1 years into Bryan’s contract with Colorado and just yesterday he hit his first home run in Coors. Woohoo! The home fans must have been thrilled! The Rockies lost 14-3.

Aaron Judge, 1.0 // 37.1
–Judge is on pace to hit 50 home runs this year. Pathetic. Decline years can be so sad to watch.

Christian Yelich, 0.5 // 37.2
–All you really need to know is that after his 2 year fade from his MVP years, Yelich has started this year hitting even fewer fly balls, and has an even lower ISO. He’s been flat lining a while, just waiting for a doctor to call it.

Mike Trout, 0.8 // 83.0
–Hit his 300th career double. So I guess maybe the last doubter might think he’s pretty good.

Age 32
Avg HOF Season: 4.0
Min Career: 32.6
WAR HOF Career Pace: 39.2

J.T. Realmuto, 0.1 // 29.8
–1 walk and 17 strikeouts to start the year. I don’t for a second think he’s fallen off a cliff as many catchers do at this age – he was just too good last year. But it was a lost start to the season, that’s for sure.

Gerrit Cole, 1.2 // 39.9
–4 and 0 to start the season 0.95 ERA 0 home runs given up. Complete game shutout. 32 Ks in 28 innings. Year by year slowly people are starting to realize he is what a modern starting pitcher Hall of Famer looks like.

Nolan Arenado, 0.4 // 46.1
–300th career home run – almost has caught new Hall of Famer Scott Rolen (already passed him in Gold Gloves).

Age 33

Min Career: 36.1
WAR HOF Career Pace: 42.0

Madison Bumgarner, -0.2 // 32.6
7.90 ERA to start the season and there’s still a year left after this. The D-Backs are improving and want to compete – when is it time just to cut bait here?

George Springer, 0.0 // 33.0
–Springer is only hitting .232, ok, but he was 5-6 on opening day. How is he only hitting .232?

Jason Heyward, 0.2 // 33.5
–Uh, alright. Heyward has 3 home runs, and had another one robbed by Cody Bellinger. He hit 1 home run last year. And yeah, he’s batting below .200, but I didn’t even expect him to still be playing, so he’s far surpassed my wildest expectations for him.

Anthony Rendon, 0.0 // 34.2
–I assume Rendon would like to hit a home run, but so far he has hit 0 (only 1 double!) Of course he had a fan he tried to hit too, and missed wildly, so guess I shouldn’t be surprised.

Anthony Rizzo, 0.8 // 35.8
–Starting out the year surprisingly sizzling, he’s closing in on 1,500 hits and 300 home runs. Most importantly if he keeps getting numbers, he can keep getting contracts for his Hall chase.

Giancarlo Stanton, 0.4 // 42.9 DL
–You know, people seem to be upset at Stanton getting hurt because he sat and watched a double instead of running it out. To me, I think it’s smart to get his first injury out of the way early, so he has time to get hurt again before the stretch run.

Jose Altuve, 0.0 // 48.5
–Altuve may be back before June, is the rumor now. Daniel Bard, who threw the pitch that injured him, also may be activated soon. I don’t know who to root for harder.

Freddie Freeman, 0.2 // 50.6
–After 17 games Freeman is hitting .328 with 3 homers. After 17 games last year he was hitting .328 with 3 homers. Set your clock by him.

Stephen Strasburg, 0.0 // 36.6 DL
–Stras isn’t doing baseball activities at all. I spent last weekend tossing a plastic baseball with the 2 year old nephew of a major leaguer, so in that sense I am far closer to taking the mound than Strasburg is.

Yasmani Grandal, 0.3 // 37.8
–At least he’s hitting again, but he’s given up 11 steals in 12 games, and hasn’t thrown out over 20% of runners in 3 years. He’s gonna have to hit a lot more to make that ok.

Chris Sale, -0.2 // 45.4 DL
He’s given up 5 home runs and has an ERA north of 11. So far Boston fans are all offering to let Sale borrow their bikes.

Jacob Degrom, 0.9 // 42.0 DL
–Ahh yes, an insane 1.30 WHIP through his 1st 4 starts – and now he’s on the DL. This tug of war between being the most effective pitcher in history, and being able to throw a baseball at all will define his career in Texas, and his Hall of Fame case.

Paul Goldschmidt, 0.7 // 54.7
–Goldy hit .317 with a .404 OBP in his MVP year last year, so far this year he’s at .322 and .458.

Clayton Kershaw, 1.1 // 73.5
–Kershaw with win number 200! OK, so he has 199, and starts his next game in an hour, but I’m betting by the time you read this, he has #200. And yes, 200 is pretty easily the modern 300, and it’s quickly dropping.

Andrew McCutchen, 0.6 // 51.4
–Fountain of youth! 0.3 WAR last year, 0.6 WAR already this year, McCutchen sits just short of several major milestones that would give his case a big boost – 36 hits to 2,000 and 10 to 300. If this is his last year – and let’s hope it’s not – he has to get there to have a chance some day.

Josh Donaldson, -0.1 // 46.1
–Donaldson needed a good year to revive his career and his Hall case. Instead he’s started hitting .125, and went to the DL with a hurt hamstring, so…

Evan Longoria, 0.4 // 54.9
–Longoria is also starting hot, as he has the last 3 years – with an OPS of .926 and 2 home runs. But he is only playing part time and needs 109 hits to make 2,000. He’s on pace to get 72 more. So, uh, don’t retire man.

Zack Greinke, 0.3 // 65.8
–He is 2 wins away from 225. His first game he gave up 2 runs in 5.1. His 2nd game he gave up 1 run in 6 innings. The Royals were shut out in both. Thanks a lot, KC.

–As Detroit says goodbye to the shell of Miguel Cabrera, who hasn’t homered yet this year, remember that his sad .615 OPS is still well above what was to be the future of Tigers (Torkelson .542, Baez .504).

Justin Verlander, 0.0 // 78.1
–Injured to start the year, he’s supposed to be back soon. Verlander wants to pitch to 45, and if he’s healthy, he has a chance to be the last person we see for at least a generation to win 300 games. So far, it ain’t going well.
