Four former Angels come up short on Hall of Fame ballot

The results of this year’s Baseball Hall of Fame voting were announced on Tuesday afternoon, and if you were holding out hope that former Angels players Torii Hunter, Bobby Abreu, Mark Teixeira and Tim Lincecum might make their way to Cooperstown in 2022, I’m afraid I have some bad news to deliver you:

Former Angels on the ballot:
-Bobby Abreu (3rd ballot): 8.6%
-Torii Hunter (2nd): 5.3%
————————————————
-Tim Lincecum (1st): 2.3%
-Mark Teixeira (1st): 1.5% https://t.co/0E1Q4GJCGs— Halos Heaven (@halosheaven) January 25, 2022

None of the former Halos came particularly close to reaching the 75 percent threshold required for induction, with the closest being Abreu all the way down at 8.
