Default New HOFers

Curious to hear what people on this side of the board think of the new Hall of Fame class -- Gil Hodges, Minnie Minoso, Tony Oliva, Jim Kaat, Buck O'Neil and Bud Fowler.
I've always thought Hodges was the most deserving eligible player who hadn't yet made it. Also thrilled for O'Neil, Minoso and Oliva. Kaat is a bit borderline for me, but still happy for him.
Great that Bud Fowler made it, although to be honest, he's a bit before my time!

Let's see what kind of memorabilia is out there -- I'll start with some game bats, a '65 Oliva jersey and a unique Hodges autographed photo. Somewhere around here I have an Olive rookie bat and a '59 Minoso All Star bat, but I'll have to post them later. Update: having trouble posting the Oliva jersey photos.
