Pitchers make up a minimum of 40% of every roster (50% of a roster is you have a 4 game series at Coors Field). Being the 6th most dominant pitcher of an era means a heck of a lot more than being the 6th best catcher of an era.

Does the 6th most dominant shortstop of the era get in HOF?
Does the 6th most dominant catcher of the era get in HOF?
At some point you have to draw the line.
