Message: [QUOTE="The Yakk, post: 5046504, member: 9988"] Doubling down, beautiful. Only a true Yankee fan would say Munson's career was comparable to Fisk's. [URL unfurl="true"]https://baseballegg.com/catcher-war-leaders/[/URL] Munson was a great player. Peak value very close to Fisk's, though Fisk was a hair better. But Munson's career was cut short before he could accumulate HOF numbers. And there's no guarantee he would have done that. Sad, but it's the Hall of Fame not the Hall of What-Might-Have-Been. Otherwise we'd have people making cases for Herb Score and Doc Gooden. I think your real beef is not with the HOF voters, but with the capricious Gods of fate that took Munson's life too soon. Your frustration is understandable. [/QUOTE]
