Im tired of hearing about t/e/c not being deserving of the hall. They held together the infield of the 1906-1910 cubs who won 4 pennants and 2 world series. Chance deserves it without a doubt.Evers was known as being one of the smartest players in history and tinker is possibly the best cluth hitter of all time. Sometimes lifetime averages dont show for what a great player one was. Ive read about 50 books on pre WW1 era players and Maranville has gotten many a nod from the old timers. As crooked as Hal Chase was, He was no doubt a great first basemen and probably his throwing games effected his FA. We did not see these players and should read into the people who did to know truely how great they were. I have read many a player mention something good about tinker evers and chance and never heard one thign bad about them from anyone that actually1 saw them
