Correct, and Drew isn't a Hall of Famer, but one of these guys played right field with that bat, the other played catcher.
Oh, and that catcher has that same OPS+ with 1500 more PA, and is still playing.
That's a horrible comparison to try to make.
That's like saying Ozzie Smith can't be a Hall of Famer because his OPS+ is worse than Charlie Grimm.
Not exactly playing the same positions, and that matters.
