This group of inductees is my favorite thus far. A current player who developed into a true star, and a couple of personal favorites who make repeat inductions. Sweet.

-------------------------------

Tony Campana has put up amazing RL SB% numbers in his first 2 RL seasons. Though OOTP 13 just has real data from 2011, I figure Campana to have a frequency of kind treatment from the dev engine in 14.

Tony Campana streaks into the HOF as the All-Time leader in stolen bases. His career total of 1163 (vs 408 CS) is more than 250 more than what the second place holder has. It is also over 500 more than the leader among active players. This mark will be his for a whle.

8 times Campana stole 90 or more bases. 4 of those times he broke the 100 mark. He led the league in stolen bases 7 straight seasons from 1978 through 1984.

A second rd draft pick of the Royals in 1976, Campana played in the Majors through the 1995 season. He picked up 2655 hits (12th) and scored 1478 runs (also 12th). His 566 doubles places him 6th on that All-Time list. No eligible with more doubles is not in the HOF.

He drew 1002 walks (49th) to put together a career slash line of 279/346/406 (npa OPS+ 110). Twice Campana led the league in hits, with a career high of 218 in 1979.

In that 1979 season, Campana stole a career high 119 bases. He scored 115 times and drove in 102 as he led the Royals to WS victory.

A six time All-Star, Campana won 2 GGs in LF. He enters the Hall by virte of his Black Ink total being above the Hall average.

Black Ink: 36
Gray Ink: 125
HOFm: 119.5
HOFs: 38

Gorilla Composite: 3.8 (yep, Tony Campana has a higher GC than Babe Ruth....would not have bet on that)

----------------------

As I mentioned in his induction post in the previous league, Jimmy Wynn has always held a special place in my baseball fan heart. I am thrilled that he makes a return trip to the HOF.

Jimmy Wynn was the 10th player taken in the 1983, selected by the Red Sox.

Twice he led the league in HRs as he clouted 447 career bombs (26th).

8 times an All-Star, Wynn had his best season in 1989 when he hit 52 HRs, and scored 134. He drove in the same figure, 134. He slashed 303/418/605 for a npa OPS+ of 195.

A rarity of the day, Wynn played his entire career with the Red Sox and retired in 1999. There he won 2 WS (1986, 1990...again, Ryan Garko was playing 1B in 1986). Matt Cain was the anchor of a fine Boston rotation in 1986.

For his career, Wynn slashed 284/384/515 of a npa OPS+ of 146. He also had 232 career SB. His 1440 career R is 18th most, all time. His 1354 RBI is 32nd most. He struck out 1612 times to hold down the 20th spot on that list.

Wynn's Black Ink and HOFs numbers exceeded the Hall averages.

Black Ink: 27 (4)
Gray Ink: 111 (94)
HOFm: 144.5 (36)
HOFs: 58 (30)

Gorilla Composite: 3.9 (1.6)

-------------------------

Jeff Bagwell is another pleasant repeat customer for me. I think he has been jobbed out of RL HOF induction, thus far, but he is getting his due, here.

Bagwell was selected by the Yankees with the second overall pick in 1988. He came to Washington and played for the Nationals in their first season in town, in 2005. That would be his last season of ML play.

For his career, he collected 2149 hits (58th) and clubbed 423 HRs (30th). His 1340 RBI are 34th most all-time.

While the career numbers are nice, Bagwell was one of the most feared players of his day. A 7 time All-Star, Bagwell twice was league MVP (1992 and 1994). He drove in 100 runs every single year in the 90s.

He made the post season 3 times, appeared in one WS, but never won a title.

In 1994 he hit a career high 47 HR while batting .314. He also scored a career best 137 runs as he drove in 119.

His career slash line of 287/374/512 gives him a npa OPS+ of 141.

Bagwell enters the Hall by virtue of his Gray Ink number being above the Hall average.

Black Ink: 13 (24)
Gray Ink: 152 (157)
HOFm: 142.5 (150)
HOFs: 41 (59)

Gorilla Composite: 3.3 (4.2)
