The team really has done a nice job with it though... https://cubs.fanportal-mlb.com/hof/?...chc-halloffame

You're not wrong about the 1969 Cubs. I wrote about it
here. Bill Hands was better than a few of those guys, but for some reason he didn't make the cut.
But I'm just really glad the Cubs have taken it seriously. Cooperstown has a lot of questionable additions and omissions that are fun to talk about, and the Cubs Hall is no different. I love players like Don Kessinger and Hank Sauer and Bill Buckner, even if I don't think they're hall-worthy.
