Before Larkin was inexplicably let into the HOF, my answer would have been the 1990 Reds.
I think a good argument can still be made that the Reds did not have a legit HOF caliber player that year and still won it all. |

I think Larkin, a 12x all-star, 9x silver slugger, and former MVP is HOF material, myself. Larkin also hit .353 in the World Series in their sweep of the A's. |

SS's in the Hall better than Larkin:
Appling Banks Boudreau Cronin Davis Jeter Ripken Vaughn Wagner Yount SS's in the Hall I'm undecided if are better than Larkin: Wallace SS's in the Hall worse than Larkin: Aparicio Bancroft Jackson Maranville Reese Rizzuto Sewell Smith (unpopular opinion) Tinker Trammell I have a hard time seeing how Larkin is 1) not a deserving HOF SS, and 2) so ill-deserved that his election is inexplicable. He's better than about 50% of the SS's in. He's certainly better than the bottom 5. Any reasonable argument here, or just hot take bias? Last edited by G1911; 08-10-2023 at 12:28 AM.

I didn't use WAR, I used my own judgement. WAR and JAWS values the two of them about the same, with a huge gap in bat in favor of Jeter and a huge gap in glove in favor of Larkin.

I know they got knocked out of the ALDS, but it's hard to leave the 2002 Oakland A's out for me. They should have won it all.
