Ballot #99 is from Jack Magruder. After a year off his ballot, Magruder adds Andruw back to accompany his seven holdovers. Jones is now +7 and is tracking at 80.8%. In the Tracker: tracker.fyi

Ballot #89 is from Mike Petriello, our 15th first-time voter. He votes for 10 candidates, 9 returnees plus ballot newcomer Cole Hamels. A summary of how each candidate has performed among first-time voters is coming soon. Petriello's column: www.mlb.com/news/mike-pe... In the Tracker: tracker.fyi

The first 90 ballots revealed include 15 from first-time voters. Here is how they've voted as a group: Beltrán 100% Félix, Andruw 93.3% Pettitte, Utley 86.7% Abreu, Hamels 66.7% Manny, A-Rod 60.0% Buehrle 53.3% Pedroia 33.3% Rollins, Wright 26.7% K-Rod 13.3% Vizquel 6.7% All others 0% tracker.fyi

Ballot #93 is from Mark Bowman, the 16th first-time voter to reveal. Bobby Abreu, Carlos Beltrán, Andruw Jones, and Chase Utley receive his four votes and are, respectively, 11/16, 16/16, 15/16, and 14/16 with first-timers. In the Tracker: tracker.fyi

Andruw Jones is 138th in career Total Bases. Among players with a .480 SLG, Jones is 73rd. Among those with 1500 games Up The Middle, Jones ranks 14th. Of the 13 ahead of him, Carlos Beltran and Robinson Cano are the only ones not in the Hall.

Year over year tracking at 70 ballots for Carlos Beltrán, Andruw Jones and Chase Utley:

23,615 players have played Major League Baseball. Only six of them (or 0.0254%) saved 200+ runs with their defense. Of those, half (or 0.0127% of all MLB players) had 100+ runs of value w/ their bats. Those three are Roberto Clemente, Adrian Beltre, and Andruw Jones

Of the 16 players to save at least 175 runs with their defense, Andruw Jones ranks 9th in career OPS+. In fact, all 10 players with 175 DRS and an OPS+ over 100 are in the Hall, with three exceptions: Barry Bonds (PEDs) Mookie Betts (active) and Andruw Jones

Through 50 ballots, Jones had 40 votes, giving him exactly 80%. He's tied with Beltran for the most votes. It seems (either this year or next) that the two of them will be entering Cooperstown together, as a package deal.

Man… Jim Edmonds got boned! Hopefully the era committee will give him a look as soon as they’re able!

Since I started my original account on the other site, 25 men have been voted into the Hall as players. This is a lot of Hall of Famers. Too many players to fit in the character limit, so I've ranked them by career fWAR in the below image.

Jones caught everything else so this tracks.

Ballot #24 is from Anthony Andro. Bobby Abreu is in his 7th year on the ballot and likely needs a big jump this year (he finished at 19.5% last cycle) to have hope for eventual BBWAA election. He gains here and is +4 in the early going. Jones catches Beltrán at 79.2% in the Tracker: tracker.fyi

Fangraphs doesn't neatly divide their WAR into oWAR and dWAR, so, crude as it is, we're going to say that Theoretical Andruw Jones's fWAR is also exactly 6.2 less than that of the real Andruw. Here's how both rank among several Hall of Famers in fWAR.

(1/12) I posted this thread a few years ago on the other site, now I'm doing it again here. Since the founding of the AL in 1901, nine players have won both a HR title and a dWAR title at any point in their career. Here are the 9 players who lead their league in both stats.

Andruw is TOP 3!!!!! And he's ahead of every Hall of Famer but one.

Andruw Jones had a record 24.4 dWAR by an Outfielder. Willie Mays had 18.2 dWAR. For the sake of argument, let's say that Theoretical Andruw Jones also had 18.2 dWAR. Here's how Andruw and Theoretical Andruw rank among HOF/Active/Scandal players in Wins Above Average.

First ballot of 2026 and we already have an Andruw Jones add!

Hit 400 HRs and be considered the best defensive center fielder of all time?

Ballot #1 in the 2026 Hall of Fame voting cycle is from Jorge Morejón. Andruw Jones receives the first net gained vote of the cycle. Jones finished last year 8.8% shy of election. Morejón's column: www.martinoticias.com/a/opini%C3%B... In the Tracker: tracker.fyi

Ballot #2 is from William Ladson, a first-time voter. Beltrán, Jones, and Pettitte improve to 2/2 in the early going, while Félix and Buehrle grab their first vote each In the Tracker: tracker.fyi

Only 35 players in MLB history played 1500 Games in Center Field. Even when taking into account time spent at easier positions, only 12 of them made it to 2000 Games. If Jones debuted three years later and had the same career, no one would disparage his longevity.

Every player to best Jones in OBP, SLG, OPS+, and dWAR: NO ONE! Every player to be within 90% of Jones in all four categories: Adrian Beltre Cal Ripken Jr. Joe Gordon Ivan Rodriguez Gary Carter All five are in the Hall of Fame.

Seasons with 41+ HR, 13+ RField, >125 games in CF: Willie Mays (4 times) Ken Griffey Jr. (2 times) Andruw Jones Carlos Beltrán

178 players in MLB History had 3500 Total Bases. Only 137 managed to compile that number without letting their career OPS fall below .800. Of those, only 39 had a positive dWAR: 32 Hall of Famers 3 PEDs 1 Active Beltran Edmonds and Andruw Jones

the only players with more WAR than Andruw Jones from 1998-2007 were A-Rod and Barry Bonds

Carlos Beltran and Andruw Jones are the favorites to be elected by the BBWAA this year. Beltran received 70.3% of the vote and Jones received 66.2% of the vote last year. The official announcement is Jan. 20, 2026.
