Im pretty shocked Beltran did as well as he did. Good for Jones on getting in people seem to forget about his 5 tool skill set!

Jones really? From the braves?
he was a great defensive player but his bat was below average
Shocked he made it
He had 454 home runs and 10 gold gloves
His bat is better than I thought
I think these two made sense.
Yeah given the list and Jeff Kent getting in these two were the clear ones to make it. I think King Felix given his performance has a chance to reach the 75% level over the next couple of years. He’s really the last of the starters who threw stupid high innings as he hit 200 innings from age 20 to 29. His stats might not be the most mind blowing but the feats he did really where
Beltran is undeserving
I'm happy for Andruw Jones. Loved watching him when I grew up. I was also shocked to learn just how underrepresented players who played the majority of their games at Center Field were in the hall of fame. I think 24 CFs in the hall of fame (but if you boil it down to where the majority of their games played or stats were accrued it's fewer), and only 2 debuted in the MLB after 1952... That's insane, so it's probably overdue in Jones and Beltran to make it.
Edit: worth adding that Kenny Lofton not being in the hall of fame is a tragedy.
