HOF players if they stayed healthy

texmcpherson · 04-04-2021, 06:22 PM

Which players do you feel have a high probability of being in Cooperstown if they could have stayed healthy? Interpret it how you choose, if you feel a players stats took a tumble due to injuries, etc. It seems like staying healthy if half the battle...

Lincecum?
Judge (TBD)?
Stanton (TBD)?
David Wright?
Prior?
Kerry Wood?
Josh Hamilton (non-injury technically)?

Johan Santana no doubt. And he should have gotten more consideration even with his actual career path

Zauron · 04-04-2021, 06:28 PM

Troy Tulowitzki absolutely would be in discussion of the HOF if it weren't for injuries IMO

Dustin Pedroia another out of nowhere guy?

Brandon Webb was a top 5 pitcher in baseball for 3 straight years before injury derailed him

Webb and Santana off top of my head.

Ryan Braun missed games and could have been in the discussion -- but not for a health reason obviously.

Pedroia came immediately to mind for me, too
