Sherry Magee. One of the top five tool players of the deadball era. Career OPS+ of 137. 441 Career stolen bases. Only non-Hall of Fame player to lead the league in RBI four times. 176 career assists from the outfield. Over 1100 career runs scored, over 1100 career RBI (during the deadball era!!), over 2,100 career hits....and he was just 34 years old when he played his last major league game. What could he have done had he stayed in the majors the next four years? He hit .331 at the highest levels of the minors over the next four years.
To me he is a no brainer for the Hall.
