We’re waiting in anticipation today about whether former Baltimore Orioles pitcher Mike Mussina will get the call from the Hall of Fame. Players need to appear on more than 75% of all ballots to be inducted. According to Ryan Thibodaux’s public ballot tracker, Mussina is currently on just over 81% of them.
As of midnight on Tuesday morning, roughly 52% of all ballots have been revealed. There’s still a long way to go for Mussina, considering that the anonymous voters generally have stricter standards than those who make their ballots public.
But Mussina has some wiggle room, and he’s been tracking well over the last couple years: in 2016, Mussina’s 43% was well short of induction, but he got to 51.
