With the Class of 2025 now behind us, we can start to focus on 2026, where former Toronto Blue Jays star Edwin Encarnacion will get his first crack at the Baseball Hall of Fame.

After coming in second on some high-profile free agents in the last two offseasons, the Blue Jays have signed switch-hitting outfielder Anthony Santander for five years and $92.5 million. His 44 home runs last year with the Orioles were third-most in the sport.

In the middle of the 2012 season, Derek Jeter found out he would be teammates with Ichiro Suzuki after the New York Yankees acquired him.

After Ichiro Suzuki, CC Sabathia and Billy Wagner were voted into Cooperstown by the Baseball Writers' Association of America on Tuesday, Martin was among three former Blue Jays that didn't garner the five per cent of the vote required to have their candidacy carried onto 2026.

Recently elected Hal of Famer, Ichiro Suzuki was a Yankee for a 2 1/2 seasons but was still productive after being acquired from the Seattle Mariners.

CC Sabathia’s career ended abruptly. Yes, the longtime Yankees left-hander had announced months earlier his plans to retire after the 2019 season, but his final appearance did not go as ceremoniously as Derek Jeter’s or Mariano Rivera’s.

Ichiro Suzuki becomes the first Japanese player chosen for baseball’s Hall of Fame, falling one vote shy of being a unanimous selection.

Outfielder Anthony Santander’s $92.5 million, five-year contract with the Toronto Blue Jays includes up to $61.75 million in deferred payments.

Ichiro Suzuki could become the first Japanese player in baseball's Hall of Fame, and CC Sabathia, Billy Wagner and Carlos Beltrán also could be elected Tuesday when results of the writers' voting are announced.

On the day that CC Sabathia and Ichiro Suzuki were elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame, Yankees Aaron Judge and Derek Jeter offered their congratulations.

The 2025 class of the National Baseball Hall of Fame will be announced on Tuesday night and while left-handed pitcher Mark Buehrle won't be getting in this time around, he will be staying on the ballot for at least another year.

“The Mets made what they perceived as a last-ditch effort to sign Pete Alonso by offering him a three-year contract in the $68 million-$70 million range, and when that was rejected, began their pivot away from their slugging first baseman, The Post has learned.”
