Those of us that think is overrated have pretty much made up our minds, as have those that think he was the greatest pitcher since the curve ball was invented. This doesn't mean that he doesn't belong in the HOF. It jsut means that he is incredicly overrated.
Hitting, I too would go with Big Mac. Strictly a one trick pony and that one trick is well represented already in the HOF. And at least Killebrew was capable of a few other positions in his career before finally ending up at 1B. Besides, can you seriously consider someone for the HOF that spent a season struggling to stay above the Mendoza line?
