Hal LewisRyan is correct in his clarification.
ALL of the names I listed were NOT enshrined as "players" into Cooperstown, but were enshrined as "MANAGERS."
Presumably, this means that they would all still be in Cooperstown for their managing accomplishments...
even if they had NEVER played a single inning of baseball.
Others who will join them eventually on this same basis:
Joe Torre
Bobby Cox
Tony LaRussa
Any others that I am forgetting?
