Here is a list of those players, along with their stolen base totals and batting average:

Kenny Lofton, 622 SB, .299 AVG
Barry Bonds, 514 SB, .298 AVG
Juan Pierre, 403 SB, .301 AVG
Omar Vizquel, 381 SB, .274 AVG
Johnny Damon, 338 SB, .287 AVG
Luis Castillo, 332 SB, .293 AVG
Reggie Sanders, 304 SB, .267 AVG
Bobby Abreu, 298 SB, .300 AVG
Carl Crawford, 289 SB, .295 AVG
Ichiro Suzuki, 288 SB, .331 AVG
Edgar Renteria, 275 SB, .291 AVG

Rodriguez will get in easily
Bonds will get in eventually, for better or worse
Ichiro has a good chance I think
Jeter has a good chance
Beltran? Maybe
Vizquel? Possible
Lofton? A chance

There's always a chance people will get voted in, but maybe I'm just tired.

I don't think Pierre or Cameron will get in.

Pretty much my choices as well. You can also add Jimmy Rollins. If the second half of his career is as good as the first half, he stands to have a good chance as well. I'd put him in my too early to tell group at this point.

Oops, this wasn't supposed to post, haha. There was supposed to be nifty poll to go along with it...oh well.

You can go in and add a poll later on. That's what Freakshow does with all his ultimate quest polls and I don't think he's a moderator.

We know now just how overrated the SB is and how little it adds in terms of run production over the course of the season. I never look at the stat anymore and really don't care.

To me the only time stolen bases are really valuable is when you have a player that steals many bases at a very high percentage (like Tim Raines, and Rickey Henderson in their primes) or someone like Carlos Beltran when he goes 42/45 or 31/32 in steals.

Rodriguez will get in easily
Bonds will get in eventually
Ichiro has a real good chance
Jeter will get in easily

The others will need help or a miracle.

Ichiro, A-Rod, and Jeter are the only ones that would get my vote (assuming they haven't done and won't do anything stupid)

[Chadwick]

Bonds, Suzuki, Rodriguez and Jeter are the only players on that list I believe will be inducted into the Hall of Fame. None of their cases will be substantially helped by their stolen base totals.

I think Rollins and Beltran are building cases for themselves, and Carl Crawford is still very young and improves every year, so I think he could end up with a HOF career.

Vizquel might have a chance, depending on if the media latches on to his case. To the untrained eye he looks pretty comparable to Ozzie Smith, and I can see him getting substantial support.

Bobby Abreu and Johnny Damon might look Hall-worthy if they reach some milestones but otherwise it's not likely.

Renteria is in if he gets 3000 hits, and Furcal might also have a shot at some milestones given how young he was when he started.

Bonds, Jeter, Ichiro and A-Rod will all end up in the Hall.

Vizquel never did any backflips though.

Renteria is in if he gets 3000 hits,

The one thing I don't like about "magic numbers"...Renteria is not worthy of the Hall.

i never saw smith bounce his helmet straight back up off a base and catch it.

[Moses Fleetwood-Walker]

Bonds, A-Rod, Jeter, & Ichiro.

[nerfan]

A-Rod
Bonds
Ichiro
Jeter

Jeter and A-Rod are locks. Bonds should get in. Ichiro is at about 75%.

Yeah, it's not like the all-time stolen base leader scored many runs or anything like that! :noidea
