.....but an emotional case certainly could be made for Dummy Hoy based on his intangible contribution to the game (although statistically he's in the Tip O'Neill neighborhood).

The statistically most deserving pitcher is, I think, Jim McCormick, but Tony Mullane and Bobby Mathews (who both should have been 300 game winners) are probably more likely to get in.

As for field players, I'd personally like to see George Van Haltren, but for my runner-up vote it's a dead heat between Jimmy Ryan and Bill Dahlen.
