Former Minnesota Twins Great Johan Santana Gets Shot At Cooperstown

One of the greatest pitchers in recent Minnesota Twins history will get a chance to be immortalized in Cooperstown, as Johan Santana made his way on to the Hall of Fame ballot on Monday. In order to be elected, he must receive at least 75 percent of the vote. While that probably won’t happen, it is still cool to see a Twin on the ballot.

Santana went 139-78 throughout his 12 year MLB career with an ERA of 3.20 and a WHIP of 1.13. He won the Cy Young award twice and finished in the top five three other times.
