There seem to a quite a bit of controversy about Minnie's age. Whether he was born in 1922 or 1925, the guy is a bonafide HOFer in my book. Here's a few comments from others about him: |

Cecil Travis! I've posted about his Hall case on this board before. He's still alive so this would be the time to put him in. |

Doc Cramer surely does not belong in the Hall. He played in a great hitters era but had no power, didn't take many walks, was a poor base stealer and even though his best asset was his BA he did not even hit .300 for his career. Forgotten OFs of the same era such as Wally Berger and Bob Johnson were much better players although their careers were a bit short to merit Hall consideration. |

This is off the top of my head, and I'll try to clairfy things later, but I can't resist jumping in quickly now. |

The HOF should consider creating a Pioneers of the Game section and include deserving AA members that have been excluded for so many years. If you look at the enshrinees of the HOF there are plenty of marginal players in there. The 19th century HOF players all have great stats (pitchers with 300 wins and hitters with high BAs) but there are a few from the 19th century that, based on the existing membership, should be in. Bob Mathews for example is 3 games shy of 300 wins. If he had 300 wins he'd be in already. There are a lot more players. Bob Caruthers has a lifetime win percentage of near .700 and he's not in. He's got over 200 lifetime wins and less than 100 lifetime losses. Only one other player has done (Pedro Martinez) this and he's still playing. Pedro's 8 losses from leaving that elite group of two. Those are just two pitchers. There are plenty of hitters which can easily have a case made for them. |

Leon Day was informed of his election to the HOF on his death bed. He died before the induction ceremony, but by all accounts I read he fully understood he was elected and was very happy. |
