The sunset years are critical for most baseball players with realistic Hall of Fame aspirations. We will now examine active batters who reached their 35th birthday prior to the 2005 season. Among players in this category, only Ken Griffey Jr. strikes us an automatic first-ballot selection.

Pretty sad list when you are talking HOF induction. Doping scandals aside Bonds, Sosa, Palmiero, and Griffey should all be locks. Guys like Biggio, Thomas, Kent, Bagwell, Piazza, and Gonzalez are all boderline.

The articles talks about Piazza

MIKE PIAZZA

Among catchers, only Mickey Cochrane and Bill Dickey finished with a higher BA than Piazza’s current .311. Though he batted .251 this year, a drop of 111 points from his best season, he has accomplished enough to merit a HOF plaque.

He will get in sooner or later.

I believe Thomas is a lock. He was the most dominating hitter of the 90's.
