"Awfully short" is stretching it. Yes, it was shorter than many. However, he still ranks in the top 35 for all-time strikeouts.

Remember, the Hall sets the minimum requirement at 10 years. If the player can prove his greatness in that amount of time, then he deserves the recognition.

For those of you discounting Koufax's career, think about how few others in the Hall were as outstanding after 11 or 12 years (and at age 30). Then you might realize what he accomplished was truly exceptional.
