    I think Billy Wagner gets in next year and Carlos Beltran gets in in 2026.

    Other possibles from various committees:
    Jeff Kent
    Curt Schilling
    Kenny Lofton
    Roger Clemens

    Lance Berkman, Bobby Abreu, and Jimmy Wynn really deserved more consideration but are now buried beneath many other similarly deserving players (Lou Whitaker, Dwight Evans, etc) and likely won't get much of a chance.

    Who am I missing?

    It’s criminal what the did to Berkman.
    No way Kent or schilling get in.
    I personally think Kent deserves it.

    Altuve just needs to play long enough that Olney and Passan can't vote.
