But those aren't number based criteria those are opinion based. By the numbers Cash and Mantle were both better choices than Maris for MVP in 1961. All-Star is a popularity contest.
If you do care for those numbers Hodges had 8 all-stars and 3 Gold gloves (which only started near the end of his career)
