Trivia Tuesday: Home Run Futility

A day after the Home Run Derby, I figured it was a good time to look at those that haven't quite left the park.
Since 2000, only 5 guys have finished an entire season with no homeruns while qualifying for the batting title. One of those guys, Juan Pierre in 2007, also has none in a league-leading 384 plate appearances in 2010. There are 6 other players who qualify for the batting title but are yet to knock one out of the park. Can you name them?

Bonus Question: Besides Juan Pierre, there is one other player who has zero home runs this year as well as in another full season they qualified for the batting title. Who is this person?

Put your answers in the comments below and I'll reveal the correct answers later on
