Five former MLB players with the Yankees and/or Mets are expected to be inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame.

Three new members will be inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 2025, as Ichiro Suzuki, CC Sabathia, and Billy Wagner were elected into the hallowed halls of Cooperstown on Tuesday. Each candidate received at least the 75% needed from the Baseball Writers’ Association of America (BBWAA) vote.

Ichiro Suzuki, C.C. Sabathia and Billy Wagner were elected as the newest members of the National Baseball Hall of Fame, the museum announced.

BBWAA secretary-treasurer Jack O’Connell recalled Suzuki was at the Hall in 2001 when he called to inform the Seattle star he had been voted AL Rookie of the Year. Suzuki received 27 of 28 first-place votes, all but one from an Ohio writer who selected Sabathia.

Countless people have called out the voter, including NJ Advance Media’s Bob Klapisch, who called the voter the “Clown of the Year.” Former Yankees closer Mariano Rivera remains the only unanimous player inducted into the Hall of Fame. Does that seem right?

Hall of Fame pitcher Tom Glavine believes one of his former teammates should be in the Hall of Fame and compared him to Willie Mays.
