Bob Mathews of the D&C takes a look at active veteran pitchers around the league and their chances at making the Hall of Fame.  He looks at the usual suspects, including guys he thinks will (Schilling, Randy Johnson, Smoltz) and guys that he thinks have none whatsoever (Wells, Kenny Rogers), and his list includes two currents Mets, Glavine and Pedro, both of whom he says are sure things, Pedro a first balloter.

This guy doesn't tend to be a Met fan, so his calling Pedro the best pitcher of the last decade means he must really like his chances. Both are definitely Hall of Famers, though unfortunately neither will go in in Mets blue.  The fact that Kenny Rogers name is even brought up is amazing, granted the conversation including the phrase no chance for consideration, but still. The only way Kenny Rogers should be at Cooperstown is if they need someone to help clean up the stands after the Hall of Fame game.
