It becomes quite likely that Adrian Beltre will be inducted into the Hall of Fame later this month as we move closer to 2024. Which team’s cap he will wear on his plaque is still up in the air, though. The Hall of Fame decides on the hat after considering suggestions from the player and their family. Rangers fans may have to wait a while for a few other options, even if a Texas Rangers cap is now the top choice.

During his brilliant career, Beltre played for four teams, with the Los Angeles Dodgers and the Texas Rangers being two of the most likely candidates for his Hall of Fame cap. Despite living in Seattle during his best years, starting at age 26,. Beltre’s stats with the Mariners were mediocre up to the age of thirty. He played in 715 games there, racking up 751 hits, including 103 home runs. Still, he won two of his five gold gloves during his time in Seattle.

Even though Beltre’s time with the Boston Red Sox was brief, he had an outstanding season in 2010. In addition to winning the Silver Slugger award and placing ninth in the AL MVP voting, he was chosen for his first All-Star Game. It is quite improbable that Beltre’s Hall of Fame plaque will feature any players from any of these clubs, even after his five years in Seattle and this spectacular season in Boston.
