I kinda assumed this would be the case as McCormick has the best resume, while Mullane has the worst out of this group, but in my opinion they all have HOF credentials.
McCormick was absolutely next level and the only reason he isn't in the Hall is because he didn't get to that coveted 300 win number.
Mullane got close to 300 as well and had great career numbers, but not nearly as strong as McCormick.
Mathews has a TON of history on his side as well as falling only 3 wins short of 300 wins, which if he would have got them, he would already be in the Hall. I'm not trying to focus on that number too much, it's just that early voters would have and it seems to be the only benchmark as to who got in and who didn't as far as 19th century pitching.
Glasscock, to me, is a HOF lock. Best all around player of his era. Great bat, absolutely insane glove and career stats to boot. He was by far and away the best SS in 19th century baseball, better than Dahlen.
