Elections to the National Baseball Hall of Fame for 2018 proceeded according to rules most recently amended in 2016. As in the past, the Baseball Writers' Association of America (BBWAA) voted by mail to select from a ballot of recently retired players. The results were announced on January 24, 2018, with the BBWAA electing Chipper Jones, Vladimir Guerrero, Jim Thome and Trevor Hoffman to the Hall of Fame. Jones and Thome were elected in their first year of eligibility.[1]
The three voting panels that replaced the more broadly defined Veterans Committee following a 2010 rules change[2] were replaced by a new set of four panels in 2016.[3] The Modern Baseball Era Committee convened on December 10, 2017, to select from a ballot of retired players and non-playing personnel who made their greatest contributions to the sport between 1970 and 1987,[3] with Jack Morris and Alan Trammell elected by this body.[4] The formal induction ceremony was held at the Hall's facilities in Cooperstown, New York, on July 29, 2018.[1]
