The Milwaukee Brewers had three former players on the 2025 Hall of Fame ballot. Of this group, LHP CC Sabathia was elected, RHP Francisco Rodriguez gathered enough votes to be eligible for a fourth year, and OF Curtis Granderson received less than 5% of votes and was removed from future ballots.
Looking ahead to 2026, one controversial Brewers star is among the notable first time eligible Hall of Fame candidates.
Controversial Milwaukee Brewers star Ryan Braun will be eligible for the Hall of Fame in 2026

Ryan Braun, a former MVP, rookie of the year, six time All-Star, and five time silver slugger will be eligible for the Hall of Fame in 2026. From 2007-2012 he was one of the best hitters in the league. The middle portion of his career was plagued to ties with PEDs, but he managed to remain productive and deliver in key situations, despite battling injuries later on in his career.
