Glew: Modest, much-respected Hamilton elected to Canadian ball hall
“It was the Greg Hamilton those of us in the Canadian baseball community have come to know and respect so deeply.
Fresh off being named a 2025 Canadian Baseball Hall of Fame inductee, Hamilton, who in his leadership role with Baseball Canada has overseen the most successful era in national teams history, participated in the Hall’s media call on Wednesday afternoon.

Whicker: Jansen, Hendricks signings more of Angels “holding on to yesterday”

You can fall off the edge of the world. Usually it requires a contract with the Los Angeles Angels.
They signed Kenley Jansen this week to a $10 million, one-year contract. Jansen is 37 years old and has a pretty good shot at the Hall of Fame, or at least he did before he signed with the Bermuda Triangle of baseball. He has a career WHIP of 0.963 and has led his league twice in saves. Remember him fondly.”
