2040 CABA Hall of Fame
For the first time since 2021 and only the second time in the 21st Century, the Central American Baseball Association didn’t add any players into the Hall of Fame. Closer Diamante Navarette was the only one fairly close to the 66% induction threshold, debuting at 61.2%. LF Fabino Salasar was the only other guy above 50%, debuting at 53.0%. The top returner was 1B Bradley Jaya at 42.1% on his third try.

The only player to drop after ten failed ballots was 2B Leonardo Robles, who peaked at 22.4% in his debut and ended with 8.9%. In 13 seasons with Havana, he won three Silver Sluggers and was part of their 2019 championship. Robles led in stolen bases five times and finished with 1565 games, 2002 hits, 1056 runs, 311 doubles, 188 triples, 64 home runs, 585 RBI, 911 steals, .330/.364/.475 slash, 125 wRC+, and 53.0 WAR. He was done as a starter by age 32, which combined with being a leadoff guy didn’t get him the tallies needed to have any ballot traction.
