Cecil travis
There ought to be adjustments made for players who made sacrifices to serve the nation in the military - especially in time of war. The late Cecil Travis is one who surely would be a Hall of Famer had not WWII intervened and shortened his career due to injuries he received.
(I'd also like to see those years of military service noted in official baseball records - like they used to be on the backs of 1950's and early 60s baseball cards.) A few others who might be considered under-rated are: Wes Ferrell, Stuffy McInnis, and Robert T. Mathews - representing three different eras.
