Can’t believe Denny McLain doesn’t have more than my vote. In 4 seasons 1965 to 1969) , the dude won 108 games (16, 20, 17, 30 w/ 1.96 ERA, 24), 2 CYAs, 1 MVP, & 1 World Series. Appeared in 3 AS games. 2.95 ERA during that span. Then his career collapsed for too many reasons.

Probably because he had an ERA+ of 101. 7 of his 10 seasons he was a below average pitcher.
Lance Berkman .293/.406/.537 OPS+ 144
Joey Votto .294/.409/.511 OPS+ 144
If Joey Votto is a future Hofer, then so is Lance Berkman is too. Votto has a MVP, but Berkman was a stud in the postseason, unlike Votto. Berkman hit .317/.417/.532 in the postseason. Berkman hit .410/.510/.564 in 2 World Series. In the 2011 World Series game 6, Berkman came up in the 10th inning with 2 outs and the Cardinals losing by 1 run. He tied the game with a single. The Cards went on to win game 6 and 7.
