Answer:
Barry Bonds

Albert Pujols
Adrian Beltre
Curt Schillling
Pete Rose
and...Lou Whitaker.
Of the top 16 second basemen ranked by WAR, there are 3 players NOT in the Hall. They are Bobby Grich, Robinson Cano, and Lou Whitaker.
Among 2nd basemen, he's ranked 7th in games played, 14th in JAWS (ahead of Alomar, Biggio, Doerr, Fox), 10th in home runs, 5th in walks, 4th in double plays turned, 11th in putouts, 18th in range factor (ahead of Morgan and Sandberg, Kent, and Cano), and 6th in assists.
1978 Rookie of the year, 3 gold gloves, 4 time silver slugger, 5 time all-star.
I hope he gets in. He really was the best player on the Tigers in those days in terms of pure talent.
Hope Munson gets in too.

Ok, Beltre and Pujols aren't eligible yet. The guys with red text just picked a bad year to retire....
