Only if it's as a player. If it's as a coach, no chance in hell.

No because he doesn't meet half of the voting criteria for election
Article 5 : Rules of Election to the Nation Baseball Hall of Fame by the Baseball Writers Association of America
Voting : Voting shall be based upon a players record, playing ability, integrity, sportsmanship,character, and contribution to the team(s) for which he played
Obviously since Rose bet on baseball he fails in the integrity , character and sportsmanship areas.
Barroid Bonds is going to have the same problem gaining admittance; while nobody can empirically prove yet that he violated the letter of the law ,I think there are few that don't believe that he violated the spirit of the law and the good sportsmanship aspect of the game.

Pete Rose will never be inducted into the baseball hall of fame under no circumstances. Bud Selig saw to that.
I don't feel sorry for a man that gambles on the game we all love so much.

I dont think the hall of fame should base on who they let in on their life and just on the game. Pete Rose was one of the best players to play the game and he desirves to be in the hall of fame more than most of the people in there right now.

I thought for a long time that yes, he should be there, but I don't think so, anymore. I know managers get into the HOF, but I see his managing the game as part of his career, not just when he played between the lines. It makes no difference. Plus, he's admitted to it, so it kind of is a dead issue.
To the guy who brought Bonds into the argument, it's a separate issue. He's never admitted to anything, except some type of topical stuff and he's never been caught by failing a test, and he never signed his name to a piece of paper saying he's agreed to a ban.

It is a shame that pete rose bet on baseball, but you cannot take away from the accomplishments that he contributed to the game of baseball, he was a once in a lifetime player, Charlie hustle, the likes of which you will probably never see again, enough with the ban, he has paid enough for what he's done!

Rose is entitled to buy a ticket like the rest of us.
His accomplishments are well-represented in the Hall's collection.
He himself, however, is not eligible, and that's just his hard cheese. Bad decisions can come with consequences.

Yes, regardless of what, Rose deserves to be in the HOF because of his on field play, everyone that is in the Hall isn't squeaky clean, the hits king needs to be enshrined in Cooperstown....

The guy gambled on baseball after signing and swearing under oath thathe never would.
Why should we let this guy in after such an act?
