I agree with your disagreement on those two!!

Playing wiffle ball back in the day, I developed a pitch called 'the Louie' after Tiant. Loved him when he came to the Yanks. I'd turn my back to the batter during the wind-up and completely change where I would let go of the pitch to mess up his timing. Good times!!

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.

Sutter is in the Hall. IMO, I don't understand the reason behind not having him represented. Murphy was very pedestrian except for 4 or 5 years ( of an 18 or 19 year career ), and Tiant was never thought of as one of the best in the game. Allen was one of the most feared sluggers back in the day and one of the top players in the game over a 10 year stretch. He's probably the most deserving for the Hall of players not in it. If you have to lose 7 players off the list, it's going to spur debate!

Richard and Tiant, as they are the only pitchers not in the HOF or to win a Cy Young on the list.

The hitters are a little tougher.

I'd knock off Ashburn and Minoso. Neither was ever an MVP, and Ashburn was a debatable HOF pick.

Then Rice, Foster, and Parker, all MVP's at one time, but also with some years where they didn't do much.

so....
Richard
Tiant
Ashburn
Minoso
Rice
Foster
Parker
