Do you think these Major Leaguers deserve Hall Of Fame Recegnition (Keith Hernandez, Ron Santo, etc.)?
No comparison. Santo was one of the best 3B in the game when he played. He was overshadowed by Brooks Robinson and Eddie Mathews his whole career. Hernandez was a terrific hitter and fielder but not even close to the best 1B in his era. He was fortunate enough to play on alot better teams compared to Santo and playing in NY gave him ALOT of exposure especially during the playoffs. Santo played on alot of bad Cubs teams. Remember the CUbs didn't draw alot of fans back then. So his exposure was limited compared to Hernnandez playing in a completely different era and market.
