(Just kidding )Seriously, didn't see Allie Reynolds on anyone's list. (I may have overlooked?) Always thought he deserved. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allie_Reynolds |

There are several great players that deserve consideration, but one, that has unjustly been denied admission. I'm astonished that on a pre-war board his name wasn't mentioned with regularity, only finding his way onto a couple posts. In the 1870s, when the catcher's position was of utmost importance (make or break a team), he was the icon of the game. He then transitioned to 3rd base where he played very well. Championships followed him where ever he went. I challenge anyone to read the book "Catcher" by Peter Morris and not include Deacon White as your top choice as most deserving.
