One barometer for Hall of Fame inclusion is Jay Jaffe's JAWS metric. This is just the average of a player's career WAR and his "peak" WAR. The peak WAR is defined as the best 7-year stretch, by WAR, of that player's career.
The Hall does have a requirement about having played in at least 10 seasons, but that can be waived under extraordinary circumstances.
