Former Astros Hall of Fame vote totals

We all know about Jeff Bagwell (71.6 %) falling 15 votes short of making the class of 2016 for the Baseball Hall of Fame. Let's talk about other former Astros that are on the ballot.

Curt Schilling, 230 votes (52.3%)

Curt Schilling spent one year with Houston. Schilling came to the Astros a part of a trade with the Baltimore Orioles in 1991. Schilling, Steve Finley and Pete Harnisch to Astros for Glenn Davis. Schilling posted a 3-5 record with a 3.81 ERA in 56 appearances out of the bullpen.

The Astros traded Schilling to the Phillies in 1992 for Jason Grimsley. Schilling would go on to Hall of Shame-level career with a 216-146 record, 3.46 ERA in 3,261 innings -- and win three World Series title (2001, 2004, 2007).

Roger Clemens, 199 votes (45.2%)

Clemens had a long and storied career before he arrived in Houston in 2004. He would spend three season in Houston, helping put the Astros clinch the 2005 NL Championship. Clemens won the 2004 NL Cy-Young award as an Astro.

Clemens is moving in the right direction, the previous two years on the ballot he received around 37 percent of the vote from 2013-2015. It would still be an uphill climb with Clemens' history with performance enhancing drugs allegations.

As an Astros, Clemens had a 38-18 record with a 2.40 ERA and 505 strikeouts in 539 innings. Over his career he had a 354-184 record with a 3.12 ERA and 4,672 strikeouts -- he won two World Series (1999, 2000).

Jeff Kent, 73 votes (16.6%)

Jeff Kent signed with the Astros in 2003 and the next two seasons with Houston. Kent had one of the most memorable home runs in Astros history against the Cardinals in the 2004 NLCS.

Kent batted .293 (306x1045) with 49 home runs and 200 RBIs in two seasons with Houston. He would bat .290 (2,461x8,498) with 377 home runs and 1,518 RBIs. Kent won the 2000 NL MVP.

Billy Wagner, 46 votes (10.5%)

Wagner posted a 47-40 record with a 2.31 ERA in 903 innings pitched with 232 earned runs allowed, 1,196 strikeouts, 300 walks, 2.73 FIP, 0.998 WHIP, 11.9 strikeouts per nine rate, 3.99 strikeout-to-walk rate, and a .187 batting average against.

The most important stat for closer is of course the save. Wagner has 422 saves, the fifth-most in MLB history. He has more than already elected Hall of Famers Dennis Eckersley, Rollie Fingers, Goose Gossage, Bruce Sutter, and Hoyt Wilhelm.

Brad Ausmus, 0 votes (0.0%)

Ausmus would easily be in a catcher's only Hall of Fame as one of the greatest defensive catchers in baseball history. Ausmus spent two trips with the Astros: 1997-1998 and 2001-2008.

Ausmus clubbed another great Astros home run in 2005 NLDS against the Atlanta Braves. In his 10 seasons with the Astros, he batted .246 (970x3,950) with 41 home runs and 386 RBIs. He won three gold glove awards (2001, 2002, 2006).

Mike Hampton, 0 votes (0.0%)

Mike Hampton was like a comment that streaked across the sky with the Houston Astros with injuries he burned out quickly thereafter.

Hampton spent seven seasons with the Houston Astros, posting a 76-50 record and a 3.59 ERA in 1,138 innings. Over his career, Hampton had a 148-115 record with a 4.06 ERA in 2,268 1/3 innings.
