Robert W. Cohen

This captivating publication delves into every epoch of baseball, scrutinizing each position and raising the question: Who truly deserves a spot in the Hall of Fame? Using eight straightforward criteria to gauge each player’s career dominance, baseball aficionado Robert Cohen elucidates the attributes necessary for a player to be considered a true Hall of Famer.

Cohen either resolves or intensifies the argument regarding who merits inclusion in the Hall of Fame and who does not. He further explores the careers of the finest players who have not been elected to the Hall of Fame and sheds light on the circumstances leading to the most egregious oversights in the selection process. Every exceptional player is scrutinized, not just in the context of his playing era, but in comparison to all the Hall-worthy luminaries who have ever played the position. 

This volume features contentious parts on Pete Rose, Shoeless Joe Jackson, and the athletes of the Steroid Era — such as Barry Bonds, Roger Clemens, Mark McGwire, Sammy Sosa, and Alex Rodriguez — in addition to the most outstanding stars who have recently retired or are still in the game! Who can be considered the top baseball players in history? Get ready for amusement, enlightenment, and astonishment as Cohen presents the undeniable facts and realities. This book is an essential read for all baseball enthusiasts!
