Why are you so big on the defensive positions that players played at? I can see taking some defensive stand outs etc., but the rest should qualify on offensive numbers versus other players of any position. Maybe ya make an exception for catchers, but for 2nd baseman/shortstop? Sandberg n' Kent are questionable HOF types(to me.)
