Would anyone argue that Miggy isn't a first ballot HOFer?

I know there is issues with WAR, but if you look at the simple numbers from BLACK INK, which is a score based off being a league leader (no hypothetical). Than you would see that Miggy has been more dominant during his playing days than Vlad.
Miggy - 43. Ranked 34th all time.
Vlad - 6. Ranked 373rd all time.
I do believe, though, Vlad would be a fine HOF because even though he didn't lead the league as often, he was in the top 10 plenty of times. Even scoring a higher gray ink than Griffey.
