warshawlawI see maybe two or three guys, tops, who belong in the HOF as players: Ferrell, Hodges, Munson
A few more are reasonable candidates given the guys already in there: Mays, Minoso, Santo, maybe Marion (SS is a weak field after Honus and Banks are taken out of there).
The following also are reasonable candidates for different reasons than just being players: Flood (as a contributor), Torre (as mgr).
The rest are weak, except for Lolich and Marshall, who are jokes.
The guys who are missing, we could fill a small book. My favorite MIA, Lefty O'Doul. .349 average over 11 seasons, great contributions to the sport (his Japanese experience--heck, he named the Giants--and PCL career).
What are these shmoes thinking??
I am depressed.
