Rocky may be the most deserving eligible player of his era that is not in the HOF, both statistically and popularity. The primary reasons he is not is because of the length of his career and lack of a championship. He is more qualified than several peers already in the hall. It’s time to right this wrong.

While I am a die hard Yankees fan, I saw the Rock play many times in my life (I am 72). Was thrilled with his short stint with the Yankees at the end of his career. He was indeed a great great ballplayer, a credit to his profession! He deserves to be in the Hall!!!

Can’t believe he’s not in the HOF
Did he do something wrong like gambling or other crime?

Besides all that you have mentioned Rocky, at the time he returned to Cleveland from Detroit was (1965 I believe) he was given credit for saving mlb in Cleveland

Many have been inducted that are less deserving than Rocky. His career stats match up with most outfielders that are in the Hall of Fame and better than many. Put him in, should have been done while he was still living!

I knew he was good but I did not know how good he was. Makes me wonder if an NFL team could have used him as a quarterback!!!

Most definitely he should be in the Hall of Fame. He was my boyhood idol and had a large fan base.
