Uncle Scoopy's Ballpark: Is Larry Walker a Hall of Famer?

My answer used to be "no," but I've changed my mind on this subject. After you take out the effects of home parks, Larry Walker is exactly as good a hitter as Duke Snider, a solid Hall of Famer. To extend that comparison, Walker was faster than Snider, was a better base-runner, and had a stronger arm. I realize that Snider was a good centerfielder, and that's generally more important than a rightfielder, but on those occasions when Walker was asked to play center, he covered about as much ground as Snider.

I withdraw my objections.
