Who are your top 5 players who are not in the MLB HOF who played in the 19th century?

1. Jim McCormick – 265 Wins, 2.43 ERA, 2x ERA Titles, 76.2 WAR

2. Bill Dahlen – 75.2 WAR, 2461 Hits

3. Paul Hines – 1st Triple Crown Winner, 1st Unassisted Triple Play, 2 batting titles, 2133 Hits

4. Lave Cross – 2651 Hits, one of the greatest defensive 3B of his era, also one hell of a catcher in his early years

5. Tony Mullane – 284 Wins, 3.05 ERA, 1st ambidextrous pitcher, 66.6 WAR, most Wild Pitches with 343

Honorable Mention Position Player: Jack Glasscock – 2041 Hits, 61.6 WAR, 1 batting title, one of the greatest defensive SS of his era

Honorable Mention Pitcher: Bobby Mathews - 297 Wins, 2.86 ERA, 55.1 WAR


That was a tough list to narrow down, but I do believe that all would be well deserving of a spot in Cooperstown.
