I love it when this thread shows up. The 19th Century players are represented, here are a few that didn't get a mention:

Count Mullane - would have probably won 300 games if he wasn't kicked out for a year.

Bobby Mathews - 297 career wins. Probably would have stuck around if he knew three Ws would have meant something.

Bob Caruthers - Third highest winning percentage for a pitcher with over 200Wins.

George Van Haltren - Lifetime .316 BA, 11 x 100 runs scored in a season, 583 lieftime SBs. Over 1000 RBIs over 1600 Runs.

Tip O'Neill - aruguably one of the most dominating statistical seasons in 1887 when he led the league in R, RBI, H, 2B, 3B, HR, BA, Slg%, TBs. Also has a career .326 liefetime BA. I guess hitting .435 one year helps that out.
