I would not vote for Shocker, but (for once) I agree with Kenny that he is the most qualified of the three. Munson was already in decline in terms of power when he died and I don't think his career numbers, even if he hung on for a few more years, would have been worthy of the HOF. Plus, you just can't credit him for what he might have done. Accordingly, he never received more than 15 percent of the vote.
PS I think we romanticize him because he was a Yankee, had a tough personality, and died prematurely. But he ended up with just over 100 HR and 1500 hits. That just doesn't get you into the Hall.
