From reading and listening to the audio version of "The Glory of Their Times" There can be no doubt that Hal Chase was one of the best ever when he was trying. The stats say he didn't very often, but those old guys raved about him. A couple compared him to Cobb as the best player they ever saw. He didn't have 5 T206 cards for no reason. He was a crook, but I can see him getting votes.
