Tim Salmon? .282 AVG, 299 HR, 1,016 RBI. Never even an All Star. Not once.
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.
