Default Exactly What Percentage of All ML players become Hall-of-Fame players?

Just FYI on a boring Tuesday night:

I have always heard that it was the top 1%, but a little research indicates a difference:


BaseballAmerica's 2018 Almanac lists one Tim Locastro as making the last debut on September 29.

BBR lists him as the 19,175th Major Leaguer.

Of the 323 Hall-of-Fame members, 226 have been elected as players...

and that comes to 1.1786% - does that mean we can remove some?
