I think Dizzy and Sisler get extra love becuase of how truly great they were before career altering injury. A bit like Koufax or Gale Sayers. Sisler's War 7 is essentially the same as Greenberg's. For the 6-7 year stretches they were healthy Sisler and Dean were as good as anyone.
Joe Wood is well collected too, probably for similar reasons.
