As long as they remain retired, the following are partial lists of former Major League Baseball players who will be eligible for BBWAA consideration for Hall of Fame election in future years. Eligible players have played 10 seasons in Major League Baseball and have retired for five full seasons. For example, those players eligible for consideration in 2024 will have last played in 2018. Those players eligible for consideration in 2025 will have last played in 2019, etc.”

For these reasons, although Fernando Rodney is active in Mexico and in Lidom, he qualifies for 2025, since his last game in the Major Leagues is taken as a starting point.

*

*

The Dominicans will compete with Adrian González, Matt Holliday, Jim Johnson, Víctor Martínez, Joe Mauer, Brandon Phillips, James Shields, Chese Utley, David Wright and Brad Ziegler.

*

Edwin is nominated with, Ryan Braun, Shin-Soo Choo, Gio Gonzalez, Alex Gordon, Cole Hamels, Matt Kemp, Howie Kendrick, Nick Markakis, Daniel Murphi, Hunter Pence, Rick Porcello, and Neil Walker.

*

The list covers until 2028, where the Dominican Albert Pujols enters with many possibilities.

*

That same year Pujols featured Lorenzo Cain, Brock Holt, Darren O’Day, Yadier Molina, Kurt Suzuki and Stephen Vogt.

Theorize each one, who enters and who does not. For those who are preparing trips, next year on July 21, on July 25 and on July 26, all Sundays.
