People prefer focusing on negatives (especially when it comes to someone else's character, since it makes them feel better about themselves).
Speaking of, with Hodges in, will the excluded focus now move mostly to Dick Allen?
Despite his bad rep, how is a guy with an OPS+ of 156 over 7300+ plate appearances (done during the lowest scoring live ball period in MLB history) not a HOF player at this point?
