With heavy Dodger bias, I nominate:
Steve Garvey Pete Rose Joe Jackson Kirk Gibson Orel Hershiser Dale Murphy Dump: Tony LaRussa Ford Frick 20-30 guys at about the George Kell level Right now, the HOF has 240 players and 300+ members overall. This feels too big. My gut is that a Hall of Famer is the kind of player who comes around only once every 2-3 years. If we take the 125 years from 1876-2000 as when potential HOFers would have made their debut, that would make only about 50 HOFers, plus perhaps 5 active players on their way. I suspect my "every 2-3 years" criterion seems severe, and I would be okay with "every year." Still, it bothers me to think that among each year's rookie class, with perhaps an average of 2-3 guys making their teams each year, that 2 or more are likely HOFers. And yes, my nominations list above presumes today's more-the-merrier approach rather than the more draconian angle I preach.

Those numbers would be pedestrian in any era. But in one of the greatest offensive eras in history, he puts up those numbers? He's nowhere close to being a Hall of Famer. Moises Alou. Numbers are a little better, but never led the league in a single statistical category. No. Ellis Burks? One top ten MVP finish, and that was a season he hit .344 AVG, 40 HR and 128 RBI....in Colorado. Two other top 20 MVP votes in 18 seasons. Two time All Star. None of these guys are even close to being Hall of Fame worthy.

1996 was a great year for voting - they couldn't come up with a single person to elect, yet six of the ones voted on eventually made it. What does that say? Choices in future years were so awful that they eventually felt compelled to let these guys in anyway? Uggh. One year Jim Kaat was way ahead of Blyleven, yet Blyleven eventually got voted in?

I nominate "Colby" Jack Coombs, pitcher for the Philadelphia A's and the Brooklyn Robins. If you are unfamiliar with Jack, or doubt the merits of this sometimes great pitcher, please take a few minutes and look him up on Wikipedia and Baseball Reference.com.
The gentleman put up some staggering numbers and achievements as a member of Mr. Mack's superb teams back then. Trust me; you shan't fail to be impressed. ---Brian Powell Last edited by brian1961; 12-11-2014 at 12:03 PM.

Negative! They are still beautiful 103-year-old pieces of history!
