As I made clear at the beginning of the article, the NEWS HOF Gauge deals only with 20th century players - so, Deacon White is not considered.

If he played full seasons in the 1800s, he would easily have 3,000 hits. He also played third base and catcher -- the least represented positions in the Hall. You gotta compare apples to apples and Deacon is one of the shiniest of his era.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('3404','Brian Joseph'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('3404','Brian Joseph','Deacon White is one of the best players of his era and should be in.
