I know this may make me look like a Tigers homer but another dude that got the royal shaft was Alan Trammel. Sure, he doesn't lofty offensive numbers but he and Whittaker were the greatest defensive double play combo in the history of baseball. If yes to Ozzie Smith, why not Alan Trammel?

Originally posted by Check View PostMeh, I think ERA overall is one of the more overrated stats in baseball. Not to mention if we are gonna knock a guy for one single stat then 60% of HOFers would be left out in the cold. Morris was a great winner, 4 rings and the most wins in the 80s and clutch as they get. The dude should of been in the hall ages ago.

I would say no to Trammell and possibly to Smith, it is a joke that Smith got in first ballot (he's borderline at best, had a ton of media hype). Smith should have been like 12+ ballots at best.
