If Roguishness is a factor in selection I'm putting up Chick Gandil...at his peak he was one of the top tier 1B in MLB...not the best but in say the top 3...for a short peak period...not a HOFer at all but a Rogue HOF might be first ballot:

Gandil's Rogue Resume:
Two sport athlete as an amateur boxer (three if you count bowling), jumped teams early in his hobo like career in the southwest (played in Cananea, Mex which was pretty violent place during that time), played under an assumed name, ran up tabs in stores and never paid, traded away from Washington during his peak bc he smoked too much and refused to stop, multiple on field fist fights with opposing players including Eddie Collins and Tris Speaker, basically organized the Black Sox scandal then likely kept other players fix money, and literally took 2 photographs his whole life where he is smiling I think.
