The All One-and-Done HOF voting team (no PEDs)

[cgjackson222]

There have been some great players that have only received one shot at a HOF vote.

This list is not to be confused with ones that includes players like Bill Dahlen or Luis Tiant that have had multiple chances/votes.

I am not advocating that any of these players belong in the HOF (though some of them probably do), but it is a bit surprising how few votes many of the players received.

The %s listed are what % of the vote the players got in the one year they were voted on:

1B) Tie: Will Clark (4.4%) and John Olerud (.7%)
2B) Tie: Lou Whitaker (2.9%) and Bobby Grich (2.6%)
SS) Jack Glasscock (2.6%)
3B) Tie: Buddy Bell (1.7%) and Sal Bando (.7%)
LF) Tie: Lance Berkman (1.2%) and Luis Gonzalez (.9%)
CF) Kenny Lofton (3.2%)
RF) Reggie Smith (.7%)
C) Gene Tenace (.2%)
DH) Brian Downing (.4%)
RHSP) Tie: Jim McCormick (no vote), Rick Reuschel (.4%) and David Cone (3.9%), Brett Saberhagen (1.3%)
LHSP) Johan Santana (2.4%) and Chuck Finley (.2%)
RP) Dan Quisenberry (3.8%)

I'm biased due to my love for the 19th century game but Glasscock and McCormick should both be in the hall!

[D. Bergin]

Willie Randolph at 1.1% is pretty stunning.

Carlos Delgado was another one and done. Got 3.8% and was off the ballot. He probably doesn’t belong but he is close and seems to me to have clearly merited an honest look and analysis rather than the dismissal he got.

Kevin Brown too. 67 WAR, 127 ERA+, 2.1% and done.
