Wright on a One-Name Ballot? Voters Lose Their Minds!
Podcast: The Carton Show with Craig Carton & Chris McMoniglePublished On: Thu Dec 04 2025
Description: BT and Sal dive headfirst into the controversial 2026 Baseball Hall of Fame ballot, which they deem "light." The discussion kicks off with a viral single-vote ballot for David Wright, prompting a fiery debate on the Mets Captain's true Hall credentials versus his "Hall of Fame person" status. The hosts break down their respective five- and four-man ballots, agreeing on Carlos Beltrán (despite the sign-stealing controversy) and "King" Félix Hernández (dominance over longevity). Sal makes a passionate case for Andruw Jones (ten Gold Gloves) and Andy Pettitte (postseason legacy), while BT argues for Francisco "K-Rod" Rodríguez based purely on his historic peak and questions why all the steroid-era greats like A-Rod and Manny Ramírez shouldn't just be inducted together.
