Strikeout pitchers were not the norm in his time and the game settings might be working against him.

On my third league for HOF method testing, and on this third run through, I got Bob Feller to enter for the first time.
Rose? He has made all three.
My standards are different from what OOTP uses, but the results have been consitent in that I get about 30% RL HOFers in a HOF of approximately 200 players.
Also, from any one OOTP HOF to another, I get a rate of about 30% for repeat entries.
Having a HOF career is simply not a lock, for anyone.
