One of the Marlins World Series teams, probably.
‘03 has Cabrera

‘97 Team had Sheffield

‘05 White Sox is a good suggestion.

Edit: 1988 Dodgers has no HOFers except Don Sutton who retired in August.

Orel Hershiser was on that trajectory but had shoulder injuries

2011 Giants could be one. We'll see if Eli makes it. He's a guy who hasn't had more than 1 or 2 elite seasons at best. I personally don't think he's a HOFer

Other than him, Justin Tuck and Osi Umenyiora are the closest to being HOFers and neither will get in. I doubt JPP gets in either

It seems more likely to happen in MLB as they’re tougher with the HOF.

I think Eli will get in. Whether or not he’s worthy is a different debate, but he most likely will get in. The only two time SB winner to not be in the HOF is Jim Plunkett, and he was a journeyman QB. Eli was still a pretty good QB for a long time, if not elite, and definitely does not have to worry about being under the radar since he’s from such a famous football family. His SB wins are two of the most memorable in history because of the comebacks and it being against the Patriots.

Chauncey and Ben will probably get in the HOF. The Basketball HOF doesn't have high standards at all (unless your name is Chris Webber), you get in just for being an all star reserve caliber player with a few accolades.

isnt a single future hall of famer on the eagles yet except Fletcher Cox maybe
Malcolm Jenkins would have to make at least one or two all pro teams while making the probowl for the next three years
