If he gets there, is he a Hall of Famer, regardless of his fielding debauchery? Since he was mentioned, question time:

This sort of TTO thing isn't a meant to be a totally neutralized stat, just a focus on batters excluding batted ball issues -- sort of like FIP without the weights. IN fact fact, I might revisit this whole thing with a "FIP for hitters" junk stat at some point. HR are park effected… as are walks and Ks.

He's a ~15.6% TTO-er (unless I fucked up the calculations royally) guy, so I suppose he's #6 on the list... Speaking of bengie molina, it's the bengie molina all-stars! http://gameofinches.blogspot.com/2010/01/bengie-molina-all-stars.html And to think, Bengie Molina JUST missed this list.

I'm actually not sure what I was thinking when I wrote that line. Maybe I was mixing up his projected value at the time with his actual value (which turned out to be pretty good)... I'll have to revisit that contract sometime. Good point… I’m actually not sure what I was thinking when I wrote that line.

I know that, pre-WAR, I would never have thought Polanco was even close to Dunn in value, much more valuable. Paul:
