Todd Helton is already a Rockies icon. On Tuesday he might become a baseball immortal.
The first baseman, who played all 17 seasons of his career in Colorado, will find out if he will be elected into theThe Hall of Fame announcement will come a little after 4 p.m. on theIt’s going to be close. Players need to garner at least 75% of the vote from the voting members of the Baseball Writers’ Association of America in order to be elected. As of Monday afternoon, Helton stood at 79.6%, with third baseman Scott Rolen right behind with 79.0%.
Thibodaux cautions, however, that the actual percentage of votes usually dips when the final totals are announced. “As we know from past elections, both candidates’ final results are expected to be lower than what they show in the Tracker,” Thibodaux explained. “It’s just a question of how many of the late public and private voters flipped to ‘yes’ votes.
“Rolen seems to still have a slightly better shot than Helton due to having more existing support among the late public voters. But Helton isn’t far behind. It seems that both Rolen and Helton are destined to come in above 70%, but whether either or both can reach 75% is a coin flip at best.” Helton is a five-time All-Star and three-time Gold Glove winner who had a .316 career batting average, rapped out 2,569 base hits and slugged 369 home runs. On the ballot for the fifth time, he has made dynamic jumps each year, rising from 16.5% in 2019 to 52% last year. If he doesn’t get elected this year, chances are very good that he will reach the 75% threshold in 2024 or ’25.
