Predictions:
Obviously, Rivera is a lock. I think Edgar and Halladay are as well. Outside of them, I don't see anyone else likely to get in. Hopeful that Bonds/Clemens can approach 65%, but they'll likely end up hovering around 60%. Mussina will be the closest to miss. I think he'll end up with around 70-72%, then make it next year. Schilling seems to have kept his mouth shut, as far as I'm aware, so he'll probably see a bit of a bump. I wouldn't really put Mussina or Schilling in, regardless, but that's just me. Would love to see Walker gain more traction though, as well as Rolen.
