It is hard to make a call on any of these pitchers. Any, or none could get in, as things set now. Since the number of pitchers that have gotten in is smaller than expected, there are many candidates not in that could get in. There are also several recently retired pitchers who will vie for upcoming spots that are ahead of those listed in various categories.
I wish I could say that Schill is a lock, but I cannot, at this point.
*Peek-A-Boo Veach is 9th, but did not play 10 years.
** Jon Matlack, Al Spalding, Peek-A-Boo Veach and Candy Cummings are all ahead on the list, but each retired with less than years ML service time.
***Hugh Campbell is the All-Time leader, 0.783, but retired before playing 10 years.
****Cal Vasbinder and George Earnshaw are ahead of Knight, but did not play 10 years
*****Peek-A-Boo Veach, 7th
****** Peek_A_Boo Veach, 7th
