No one made it, just like 1996 except this time it wasn't due to a lack of talented players.

Biggio was #1 at 68.2%, Morris had a late surge pushing him to 67.7% (last count at BBTF had him at 60%), Bagwell, Piazza and Raines all cracked 50% (just one player who cracked 50% didn't get in at some point).  Clemens & Bonds were well back in the 30's.
