3× Gold Glove Award (1957–1959)
Managed the '69 Miracle Mets
I second this one...Harold Baines and Barry Larkin...no Gil Hodges?? Cmon...

As for Maris...Here is a player still revered, talked about, and relevant...above many of his peers...I would want him in for emotional reasons, and not sure that's good enough. I certainly wouldn't be upset if he got in...
