Donlin is an interesting guy, but he was a starter for 5 seasons. For a guy whose claim to baseball greatness is a .333 batting average, 1,282 hits is a very small amount.
I'd put him in the "great talent, wasted his career and much of his life" category of what-could-have-been's. Chick Hafey was a starter for 7 years, the player I can think of with the shortest real tenure in the modern major leagues who made the Hall (and whose election is almost universally derided).

I always mention Ken Boyer and Vada Pinson.
