barry arnoldHi Mark,
thanks for the question.
Dr. Darren's initial post asks for the best baseball player... not in the Hall of Fame. My picks were based solely on the criterion of talent,estimated largely via my analysis of their baseball statistics, since
I had the freedom to choose what I considered critical criteria. Also using
Dr. Darren's parameters, I chose those 'Not in the Hall of Fame' and 'those on
206s'. I believe,given my criterion, that they are the most talented. I am not saying they should be in the Hall of Fame. I would need to
incubate this a bit before I would make a decision since the criteria are no longer my own but the criteria delineated by the Hall of Fame itself.
best,
Barry
