The Baseball Writers' Association of America will announce the 2015 MLB Hall of Fame class Tuesday, Jan. 6, at 2 p.m. ET, as this year's crop of candidates will look to follow up what was an impressive 2014 class.
A total of 34 players are featured on this year's ballot, 17 newcomers and 17 holdovers, with a trio of pitchers in Randy Johnson, Pedro Martinez and John Smoltz highlighting the first-time eligible players.
Last year saw three all-time greats earn enshrinement in Greg Maddux, Tom Glavine and Frank Thomas, and this year's class has a chance to be equally impressive.
So ahead of the official voting results, here is a complete rundown of the 2015 candidates.
Also included are predictions on how the voting will inevitably shake out, based on partial voting results that have been made public as well as overall voting trends in recent years.
*Note: Vote total predictions based on 571 possible ballots, the number cast last season, though more or less could wind up being cast.
