You sure are right about the poem.
For Frank Chance, it was obviously in large part about intangibles (probably the biggest one being that darn poem). Leadership must have a played a big role, and certainly leadership should be one quality to be considered when deciding on a Hall of Famer. The one comparison you didn't make between Chance and Daubert is how they were viewed by the baseball writers who voted on them just 13-15 years after Daubert's career ended. These are the three years they appeared on the BBWAA ballot together: 1937 Chance 24.4 % Daubert 1.0 % 1938 Chance 50.8 % Daubert 0.4 % 1939 Chance 57.7 % Daubert 0.4 % Greg
