More potential Hall of Famers announced ...
Posted By: Arthur Lobbe
I always have difficulty dealing with the Hodges Klu comparison. Based on the numbers Klu's stand up extremely well (lifetime BA .298-.273) and during a 4 year stretch 1953-56 he was arguably the best 1st baseman in the game. Defensively, Klu won a number of the defensive awards that were given at the time for 1st basemen. However, his career was plagued by injuries and he didn't have the sustenance that Hodges had. He also didn't have Robinson, Campy or Snider. I think Santo deserves induction, however having grown up in the 50's and 60's, for my money Ken Boyer was the best third basemen in the NL over a long period of time. He was an 11X All Star with 6 starts. He was impressive. What a great topic. This can go on forever.
