Jeff Bagwell, Pudge Rodriguez and Tim Raines elected in.
Clemens and Bonds didn't get enough votes. Like Bagwell and Pudge didn't use roids as well?
One player I always like was close to getting in: Vladimir Guerrero (71.7 percent, just short of the 75 needed). Excellent player largely forgotten about since he spent his prime clanking away up in Montreal.

Rose Pete she be one
Still not enough love for Trevor Hoffman! Hell's Bells voters, come on!
Bonds was the biggest and most obvious cheater of all time. He sucks
What about Sammy Coats
What about Roy Hobbs
I just find it interesting that even though players accomplishments don't change over the years, their vote tallies do. In Tim Raines's first year of eligibility he received only about 30% of the vote but now he gets enough to get in.
I'm not arguing if he deserves to get in, but what did he do over the past 10 years that has changed his worthiness, much less to such a degree.
Sosa still less than 10% LOL. My beef is Bud Selig, who turned a blind eye to the whole steroid thing, got in. Probably the worst inductee ever.
