Alan Trammell, and Larkin should probably get in. However, I don't like the argument that because THIS guy is in the hall, then THIS guy should be in the hall. For more on those questionable picks (Bancroft, Schalk) be sure to read Bill James's The Politics of Glory. Classic stuff.

I told him that I wanted to be a real major league baseball player, a genuine professional like Honus Wagner. My friend said that he'd like to be President of the United States. Neither of us got our wish."
