We all have varying thoughts on what the Hall should be. Personally, I have mixed feelings on quantifying every minute detail. If there was a statistical bar (i.e. .280/350HR/65WAR, etc) I would certainly be interested to see who�s already in and doesn�t hit it vs those who did and aren�t. On the flip side, I do like at least some human element. As many have said before, it�s the Hall of Fame, not the Hall of Stats. Canseco, Mattingly, and Bo Jackson were as famous as any other ballplayers in the 80�s and 90�s. I�m not arguing for their entry, per se, but I do subscribe to the idea that the Hall should be a museum that tells the history of the sport through the lens of it�s most iconic players, sometimes stats be damned. Stepping down from my soap box now.
