MLB: Ten Current Players Who Could Make the Hall of Fame

Enshrinement into the MLB Hall of Fame is the ultimate honor that one can receive after a player’s career has come to an end. Which current players could be destined to be immortalized in  Cooperstown once their careers have come to an end?

Early in a player’s career, it becomes apparent if someone has the potential to be a truly special player. They may burst onto the scene, a true phenom who takes the league by storm off the bat, or they may take a couple of years to acclimate before their greatness shines through. Other players, perhaps due to where they play or from being overshadowed by others, toil away in obscurity, only to have their career numbers match up with the true greats of the game.

While some of these players may fade over time, there are a select few that could make the case to be eventually inducted into the MLB Hall of Fame. Even those who could, hypothetically, have a case do not always come close to immortalization within those hallowed halls. It takes a truly special player to end up in Cooperstown, forever remembered as being a member of the Hall of Fame.

We have even seen that with a few of the current players in baseball. There are those whose careers would strongly hint at induction in Cooperstown after they decide to hang up the cleats, while others appear to be on the right track for immortality. But which of these players could end up being fondly remembered for all time by fans of the game?

Let us take a look at a few current players with a chance to be enshrined in the MLB Hall of Fame.
