Message: [QUOTE="Knicks411, post: 1826594, member: 767"] I don't think Perez is a good HOF choice, but I agree McGriff is probably pretty comparable to him. My first though on McCovey vs McGriff is that McCovey was clearly better. I went back and I looked it up, and I still think that's right, but maybe I underrated McGriff a little. If you look at OPS+, McGriff was top 5 7 years in a row, which is real damn impressive. (No other top 5's). McCovey had the same # of top 5, though he lead the league 3 years in a row. (McGriff just once) It looks like McCovey may have been platooned a little as his career went on? he had a few seasons where he woud have made the leaderboard in OPS+ but he just missed the PA to qualify. In both 73 and 74 he would have finished 2nd if he had enough PA to qualify. So I'd def go McCovey but McGriff was underrated to me [/QUOTE]
