Guess I didn't accidentally duplicate Carmelo/Carmen Martinez in the above teams' lists, after all, folks. That's a little load off here, then.

Now, as for several of the players listed above being listed as being Hall of Famers in at least one of my other games, I will give you a list of players currently in the MLB Hall of Fame, as of September 1, 1912 in the aforementioned game, and I will try to let you know which ones were fictional players, and which were historical players, if I'm not too mistaken here, as well.

I will list them alphabetically, at least, and give you the names of their induction teams/franchises' current nicknames as well, and I'll try to eventually post pictures of their career totals here in this thread, at least for those players listed above, if and when I can and when appropriate enough. Then you can make your own judgements about each of them as you may see fit to do just that, of course, everyone.

If you want me to show certain players' career statistics and/or HoF pictures, et cetera, please let me know which ones, and when, et cetera, and I'll see what I can do, of course, everyone, as often as I can. I'm also going to list players potentially up in the next few seasons below, for that matter, by likely first class of eligibility, as well, at least for players I think quite likely to eventually gain Hall of Fame induction at some point.

1913:

Likely only first-ballot candidate who may be a lock so far is Jim Handiboe. If he gets in, it will be as another Baltimore/New York player, seeing as he evidently only played for that franchise. 378-344, 3.03 ERA, 6,511 IP, 3,246 K, 138.0 WAR, several major awards/honors, et cetera.

1914:

The players I might term as perhaps each having at least somewhat strong, if not most definite, possibilities of being first-ballot inductees in this class are Toad Ramsey (LOCK, Definite St. Louis NL inductee), Scott Stratton (LOCK, Boston Americans [Red Sox]), and Jack Stivetts (Strong, New York Giants). I don't know how good the chances of that happening for other players in that class may be, at least for MLB, but maybe we might also eventually see Klondike Douglass, Sadie McMahon, Wiley Piatt, Bill Dahlen, and Cupid Childs, at least, in the MLB Hall of Fame, somehow.

1915:

Ed Delahanty seems the most likely first-ballot candidate here to me, at least right now. Others who may get in eventually, if not immediately, may include Gene DeMontreville and possibly Jake Stenzel, at least. Especially if they spent enough time with my franchise during that long run of pennants I mentioned earlier in the thread at least once, I think, for instance.

1916:

Most likely candidate, but who I don't think will likely get in as a first-ballot one, is Harry Howell. Other potential candidates, in my view, for possible eventual, if not immediate induction are Willie Keeler and Jesse Burkett, with maybe slim to decent chances for Eddie Plank and any of the other members for the class, I think, at this point, depending on how ballots eventually play out before then, of course, at least.

1917:

The following players, at least, seem to be the players who will first appear on the 1917 MLB Hall of Fame Ballot:

Fred Clarke
Dan Kerwin
Bill Lange
John J McGraw
Dusty Miller
Damian Miranda
Jesse Tannehill
Tuck Turner

Of those, I think the most likely to gain election, but not necessarily in order of likely chances, are as follows:

Bill Lange
John J McGraw
Dusty Miller (LOCK)
Jesse Tannehill
Tuck Turner

I picked up a lot of players over the years who were near or at the end of their careers, especially if they didn't yet have a ring, in order to try to get them at least one, but haven't always been successful in doing so, of course. I think I picked up Sho late in his career, but he didn't really do much with me, if anything, and I don't think I got him a ring, for example. He might have gotten at least one earlier with Chicago, though, if memory serves, everyone. I'd have to check that to be sure, in any case, I'm sure.

Well, I suppose that's enough talking about related things in this post, at least. Talk to you all very soon, I hope, then, everyone. CD out.
