Billy Wagner will get his long-awaited moment today when he is inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame alongside Ichiro Suzuki and C.C. Sabathia. Wagner was elected into Cooperstown in his tenth and final year of eligibility, securing votes on 82.5% of ballots.
Wagner will go into the Hall wearing an Astros cap after spending nine of his 16 major league seasons in Houston. But he also played a significant role in Queens, serving as a central figure of the 2006 team—he finished sixth in Cy Young voting that year—and making the NL All-Star team in 2007 and 2008.
