Raines was elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame on Wednesday, joining a 2017 class that also includes Jeff Bagwell and Ivan Rodriguez.
The legendary leadoff man spent 13 of his 23 seasons with the Montreal Expos after they made him a fifth-round pick in 1977.
He thanked Montreal in a statement on Twitter following his election to the Hall on Wednesday night.
