Biggio hasn't been accused (yet) and belongs in the HoF, but not a first ballot.

Just my opinion.

Walker, Bagwell, Raines and maybe Trammell. Trammell will have to wait until he's old and go in with Whitaker as old timers.
I think its a pretty large leap to say that no one got in because of Bonds and Clemens. It is certainly a valid position that, but for the PEDs issue, they may have been the only worthy inductees, all things considered. I limit it to a statement made against those two alone.
