Default Think theres deserving 19th century players not in the HOF

I think that we could probably "analyze the crap out of" fielding, if anyone really cared. But hitting somehow captures the spirit of the game - you feel it when you make solid contact with the ball.

A pitcher can't do that, a fielder can't do that.

Two of the top four hitters are not in the hall of fame. Both lifetime and season.

Yet Maranville is in the hall - what is his lifetime BA?
