It’s notoriously difficult to judge a player’s Hall of Fame chances, especially with Major League Baseball having gone through the dreaded steroid era. How players like Barry Bonds and Roger Clemens fare in upcoming elections will have significant impact on current steroid players who will one day appear on a Hall of Fame ballot.
For now, I evaluated 75 active MLB players with the best chance of one day making the Hall of Fame, separating them into groups for locks, near-locks, probably, maybe, doubtful, on track and too early to tell.
