Who's Who and Who's Not (HOF)
Posted By: Judge Dred
I think one reason of the main reasons Ross Youngs was voted in was because he died at the age of 29 after playing 10 years in the bigs. He did have a respectable .322 lifetime BA. McGraw said he was (one of) the greatest outfielder he'd ever seen. I don't want to make comparisons between an everyday player and a pitcher but Addie Joss was voted in after him after playing 9 years in the majors. I know, Joss as a pitcher had more spectacular stats than Ross as a hitter. Statistically Ross Youngs was a star, a baseball immortal - probably not.
