Will Roger Clemens get into the Baseball Hall of Fame on the first ballot?
Give a detailed answer.
I really don't see him getting in. He will be just like Pete Rose. The trial did help him because some will feel that he didn't take the performance drugs, but I believe most will not. As far as his stats, with 7 Cy Young Awards I believe, without question. I really believed he should have taken the seat and spoke for his name. Since he didn't do that either, I can't see it happening. Perhaps, down the road sometime decades from now, but probably not.
Not a chance. Writers and other voters have jumped onto the pious cloud even though they loved the big numbers while Sosa, Palmeiro, McGuire, Bonds, Clemens and the other 'roid users played.
Absolutely not. Not with Curt Schilling and Craig Biggio on the ballot for the first time this year.
Not on the first ballot. Will he get in eventually? I think so. But, to get in on the first ballot you have to have a pristine career free from the cloud of performance enhancers
He won't make it on the first ballot, the writers will see to that. I think he'll make it eventually, likely on his last opportunity (15 years?) or through one of the special committee votes.

Should Barry Bonds, Roger Clemens, and Sammy Sosa be voted into the Baseball Hall of Fame?The Baseball Hall of Fame ballot for 2013 was just released. Given these players alleged steroid involvement, should they be voted in the Hall?

I found this interesting Google spreadsheet that tracks the published ballots of all the baseball writers who have disclosed their ballots for this year: https://spreadsheets.google.com/lv?key= … y=CPyuwqIJ From this sample, it looks like Roberto Alomar and probably Bert Blyleven will get in...

Where is roger clemens and should he be inducted into the hall of fame
by Paul Edmondson 16 years ago
I saw a bit of Roger getting questioned today. Wild. It was very sensational with two men sitting side by side getting questioned and one is clearly lying. The one question I wanted to hear is if Roger thought it was possible that he had been injected with HGH and didn't know it.
