Twenty-six players are on the Baseball Hall of Fame ballot released Monday, but only one is considered a lock for induction next summer: former Dodger Adrián Beltré.
Beltré assembled an impeccable resume after signing illegally with the Dodgers out of the Dominican Republic when he was only 15 years old in 1994. Over a major league career that spanned 21 seasons from 1998-2018, Beltré had 3,166 hits that included 477 home runs and 636 doubles.
The third baseman led the majors with 48 home runs in 2004, his last season with the Dodgers.
