MLB Teams With the Most Hall of Famers
Boston Red Sox left fielder Ted Williams, left, talks over records with New York Yankees center fielder Joe DiMaggio at Fenway Park in Boston.Every Major League Baseball franchise has its legends — the best to play the game. Some of those legends end up in the National Baseball Hall of Fame. Others still are waiting for the call to Cooperstown.
As of the 2022 induction ceremony, the Hall of Fame has 341 elected members, including 269 former major league players, 40 executives/pioneers, 22 managers and 10 umpires.
In 2001, the Hall of Fame began to designate a "primary team" for inductees who played on multiple teams. In most cases, a player is enshrined with the cap of their choice, or desired "primary team," but sometimes, the Hall goes against a player’s wishes and decides where the player "made his most indelible mark" on the game.
As a result, some players have a different "primary team" than the cap they are wearing on their Hall of Fame plaque. And some players have no logo on their plaque at all.
Here are the Hall of Famers for every Major League Baseball franchise, based on the team they represent on their plaque in Cooperstown.
Note: A player/manager, manager or executive are marked with an asterisk.
Miami Marlins — 0
Florida Marlins right fielder Gary Sheffield watches the flight of his solo home run against the Cleveland Indians in Game 3 of the 1997 World Series at Jacobs Field in Cleveland.Gary Sheffield has the best Hall of Fame argument for a Marlin, but his ties to the steroid era almost guarantee he won’t get in.
Looking a long, long ways into the future, former Marlin Giancarlo Stanton may have a Cooperstown case one day. But would he go in with the Marlins?
Potential Hall of Famers for Miami Marlins
Giancarlo Stanton played for the Miami Marlins from 2010 to 2017.Giancarlo Stanton played for the Miami Marlins from 2010 to 2017, was a four-time All-Star, led the National League in home runs twice and was named National League Most Valuable Player in 2017.
Tampa Bay Rays — 0
Tampa Bay Devil Rays third baseman Wade Boggs waits for a pitch against the Oakland Athletics at Tropicana Field in St. Petersburg, Fla., in 1998.The Hall of Fame used to let players who were on multiple teams pick which team’s hat they wore on their Hall of Fame plaque in Cooperstown.
That changed after Tampa allegedly tried to pay Wade Boggs to go in as a Devil Ray.
Boggs, who played his last two major league seasons in Tampa Bay, has a Red Sox cap on his plaque. Evan Longoria, who know plays for the San Francisco Giants, could be the Rays' best bet for a Hall of Famer now.
Potential Hall of Famers for Tampa Bay Rays
Evan Longoria played for the Tampa Bay Rays from 2008 to 2017.Evan Longoria played for the Tampa Bay Rays from 2008-2017, won three Gold Gloves and made three All-Star teams.

Colorado Rockies — 1
Larry Walker is the first member of the Colorado Rockies elected to the Hall of Fame.Two players in Rockies history have made cases for being in the Hall of Fame: injury-prone outfielder Larry Walker and first baseman Todd Helton.
Both players received little support from the voting committee because common thinking was that Denver’s thin air inflated their numbers.
That all changed in 2020 when Walker became the first player in Rockies history to make the Hall of Fame.

Larry Walker was named National League Most Valuable Player in 1987.Larry Walker (1989-2005)

The second baseman played for eight teams in 17 seasons, and his five-year stint in Toronto was the longest with any one team.
A career .300 hitter, Alomar contributed to the Blue Jays' two World Series championships, but he also had a forgettable moment when he spit on umpire John Hirschbeck in 1996.
In December 2022, Fred McGriff made it to Cooperstown in the Class of 2023 as a unanimous choice among the 16 members of the inaugural contemporary baseball era committee, which considered players whose primary contributions to the game took place after 1980.
McGriff, 59, starred for six different clubs during his 19-year career. He was a five-time All-Star, hit 493 homers and collected 2,493 hits while finishing in the top 10 of MVP balloting in six different seasons, including each season from 1989 to 1993.
McGriff hit 30 or more homers in a season for five different franchises, including the Toronto Blue Jays, San Diego Padres, Atlanta Braves, Tampa Bay Rays and Chicago Cubs. He helped the 1995 Braves team win the World Series, homering twice in the Fall Classic against Cleveland.

Pitcher Nolan Ryan owned the Rangers and served as team president after his playing days, but he sold his stake and now is an adviser to the owner of the Houston Astros.
Recently retired Adrian Beltre could add to this list, but the potential Hall of Famer played for multiple teams.

No Logo on Cap — 64
Former Philadelphia Phillies pitcher Roy Halladay acknowledges the crowd before a game against the New York Mets in Philadelphia in 2014.Some of the biggest names in the history of the baseball, for one reason or another, entered Cooperstown without a logo on their cap, including Honus Wagner, who was one of the "First Five" inducted into the Hall of the Fame in 1936, along with Babe Ruth, Ty Cobb, Christy Mathewson and Walter Johnson.
The 2019 class has two players with no logo on the cap: Mike Mussina and Roy Halladay.
The late Halladay pitched 12 years with the Toronto Blue Jays and four years with the Philadelphia Phillies, and his wife said he will enter the Hall of Fame without a logo on his cap out of respect for both cities.
Mussina spent his first 10 major league seasons with the Baltimore Orioles and his last eight with the New York Yankees, and felt both teams were instrumental to his success.
