He was overshadowed by Jackie, Roy, Gil and did not have the wow factor of Mantle or Mays and didn't come close to the 500 HR club.

Who had the most HR of the 1970s? Most people get this wrong.

Stargell is the man. Most people will guess Reggie or Bench.

Personally I think Snider was overrated. He was always associated as Willie Mickey and the Duke but he wasn’t on their level.

I would think most 70s HRs is Reggie.

Not sure how highly rated he really was. He didn't make the Hall until 1980, 16 years after he retired.

Snider, from Baseball Reference. He was hurt hugely with the move to the LA Coliseum but his stats hold up for the HOF>

Batting - 28 (66), Average HOFer ≈ 27
Gray Ink
Batting - 183 (53), Average HOFer ≈ 144
Hall of Fame Monitor
Batting - 152 (89), Likely HOFer ≈ 100
Hall of Fame Standards
Batting - 47 (103), Average HOFer ≈ 50
JAWS
Center Field (8th):
66.3 career WAR / 49.9 7yr-peak WAR / 58.1 JAWS
Average HOF CF (out of 19):
71.1 career WAR / 44.5 7yr-peak WAR / 57.8 JAWS

Mays is easily one of the top 10 players in MLB history. Mantle is somewhere in the top 25. I don't think Snider should be considered one of the top 100.

Also, 1949 Bowman is particularly ugly, and 1951 Bowman particularly beautiful.

This is my favorite Snider, also like the 53BC but don't own one.
