I don't know the limits, but maybe at some point the more we play we may have to make tough choices. I try to use things like 1,000+ Runs + 1,000 RBI's, or 2,000+ Hits, 300+ HR, 300+ SB and some accolades like a high number of All-Stars, All-Leagues, Gold Gloves and then even number of times leading the league in important stats. Of course some division and league titles help. For managers...1,000+ wins and some championships. What do you guys use?

For example, Shawon Dunston was a hero in Chicago, but not good enough for the baseball HOF. But he's in the Chicago Cubs Hall of Fame because he was so important to the fans.

Although I would consider someone who was near the top of the team stat boards across several distinct stats. Its been a while since I had someone worth adding. But interestingly, a couple guys in my HOF were also uncontested waiver claims, LOL. Updated Friday, September 19 2025 @ 4:29:09 am PDT

Not only have they brought enjoyment to the fans through demonstrating superior athletic ability and providing memorable victorious moments, they have made successful contributions to the Denver community volunteering their time at schools, hospitals and have made themselves available to the current Denver players and staff to keep the franchise moving forward.

To a degree its not about numbers, its about the guys who were consistently good or great for a long period, and/or those who came through in the biggest moments time after time. There are six players and one manager in our HoF, five of those from our glory years in Legends (I did start typing a big piece about them but fat-fingered halfway through and lost it, and I'm not doing it again!). Our best SS, two best hitters, three best pitchers, and best manager - the numbers, and wins and trophies back up their credentials.

Batters must have near or over 250 hr while hitting over .250 with OPS over 800 for a career. Gold gloves are taking into consideration. Pitchers mostly ERA and wins are considered with innings pitched. But saves are important. My current closer has 464 saves for my team. My current catcher Ivan Daley was apart of 12 all star games.
