7. Thurman Munson. There are 17 catchers in the HOF. He’s 12th all-time in JAWS (a stat that accounts for longevity). Each of the 11 catchers ahead of him are in the HOF. Unless they plan on never inducting any catcher again, he should be in.

8. Don Mattingly

9. Carlos Delgado 

10. The answer should always be Kenny Lofton.

11. Dale Murphy and Andruw Jones

12. Johan Santana

13. Barry Bonds is hands down the best to ever swing a bat.

14. Michael Young.

15. Kenny Lofton and Andruw Jones were the two best defensive CF I’ve ever seen

17. Kenny Lofton

18. Barry Bonds, Alex Rodriguez, Roger Clemens, Sammy Sosa, Mark McGwire, Pete Rose, etc.

    It’s a museum, get off your high horse

19. Luis Tiant. 229-172, 66.1 WAR, 2400+ Strikeouts, 1.19 WHIP. More WAR than ~20 Hall of Fame Pitchers.

    Plus a world famous delivery and personality.

20. I don’t think it’s a slam dunk, but I was shocked Johan Santana dropped off the ballot his first year. It’s a Koufax situation of a short career cut short by injury but with insane peak value (and he actually had a higher ERA+ and WAR than Koufax in the same number of seasons)

21. Keith Hernandez

22. Jeff Kent

23. **Johan Santana**

    2 Cy Young’s- should have been 3 which is pretty much a lock for HOF.

    3x All-Star

    Pitching Triple Crown (2006)

    No-hitter, which probably cost him is arm and a longer career.

    No pitcher more dominant in the 2000s

24. Shoeless Joe Jackson

25. Man. Those are all good answers. Love Dewey.

26. Kenny Lofton

27. Dave Stieb

28. Andruw Jones

29. Andruw Jones!!!

30. I don’t care about his career numbers or the fact he only played 11 seasons. Roger Maris being the single season home run king for 37 years, or 61 years if we’re not counting steroid guys, he absolutely belongs in the hall

31. Jim Edmonds

32. Andruw Jones

33. Grich, Whitaker, Freehan, Randolph, Tommy John (Jim Kaat?).

34. Andruw Jones

35. Dwight Evans was my favorite player when I was a kid. He is in the HOF of my childhood mind at least.

36. 

37. Dale Murphy

38. Andruw jones.

39. David Cone. Cy Young Award. 5 time all-star. 5-time world champion. Pitched a perfect game.

40. Bernie williams

41. David Cone 😤

    5 WS rings
    Cy Young
    Perfect Game

    He’s accomplished everything a pitcher could literally ever hope to accomplish. His resume is bonkers and he deserves it Off accomplishments alone imo.

42. Eli Manning

43. Donnie Baseball

44. I’m tremendously biased, but Bernie Williams. And yes, my username is after him.

45. Bobby Grich
    Jim Edmonds
    Kenny Lofton
    Lou Whittaker
    Johan Santana
