It's a team accomplishment; no player has solo'd a team to the World Series. Hence why Ted Williams has none. Mantle needed one of the greatest teams of all time around him, because a single player cannot carry an entire team.
The argument that Raines is not a legitimate hall of famer because he only has a ring because he played for a good team that year is obviously illogical.
