Browns (1):
Raymond Gindler, 1937

Dodgers (1):
Allen Albertini, 1940

Reds (1):
Cecil Tan, 1938

Tigers (1):
Kid Fite, 1950



The Tigers were the last team to get a player inducted when Fite went in this January. It's still hard to imagine the Cards and Yanks so far down this list, and despite the great Yankees dynasty, they have a relatively weak representation. Although Booth & Riley are likely to go in soon. The Dodgers have just one, but players from their dynasty are just becoming eligible, and they have two no-doubters in Vancini & Smith. Plus, more proof that the Senators have quietly been a quality franchise for some time. And with this many Braves, it's even more disappointing that they did not win more pennants (or the A's a WS).
