If negativity is a factor keeping some out of the HOF, then positivity should be a factor, along with all of the accomplishments

He was my favorite Indian while growing up. I am stunned that he has not made it into the HOF.

He was my favorite growing up. Rocky & I share the same birthday. We both are Italian. I just adored him. Yes he deserves to be in the hall of fame.

I was a youngster when Rocky lit up the sky at Briggs Stadium in Detroit. I still have his autographed baseball glove hanging in my man cave in Florida. I wore that glove all through my varsity baseball days in high school. Rocky should definitely be in the Hall of Fame!

The following is why Rocky Colavito belongs in the HOF.
Colavito hit 374 HR’s, whereas HOF members averaged 225. HOF’s averaged 1203 RBI’s, Rocky’s total is 1159.
Rocky’s career OPS, on-base percentage + slugging average, compared to players already in the Hall of Fame whose careers overlapped with Colavito's and with the 2008 HOF nominees: Colavito ranks 17th when added to the list of 35 already Hall members of his era. He also ranks ahead of Reggie Jackson, Carl Yastrzemski and Roberto Clemente.
HOF member’s average SLG average is .468 whereas Rocky’s SLG average is .489
HOF members average .837 OPS, whereas Rocky’s lifetime OPS average was .848.
