I Like the Old Stuff19th Century players worthy:
Van Haltren - Look at the numbers - WOW!!!
O'Neil - Arguably one of the greatest offensive seasons in anyones career; a lifetime .300 hitter, not bad at all.
Caruthers - 9 Seasons as a pitcher that produced one of the highest lifetime win percentages.
Move on the 20th century:
Cravath - 6 HR titles in 7 years!!! OK, he wasn't a great fielder but he sure could clobber the ball in the dead ball era.
Mays - His pitch may have taken out Chapman but he still had an illustrious career.
Bob Johnson - 8 xs 100 RBI seasons and a career slugging pct of over .500 and he's still not in there. I don't understand this one at all either.
Sure there's more but that's a pretty worthy start considering some of the players that have been enshrined for lesser reasons.
