basemen and third basemen and outfielder, played in 1,749 games, 6,332 at bats, 1,099 runs scored, 1,848 hits, 320 doubles, 79 triples, 351 hr’s, 1,119 rbi’s, .292 BA, .378 OBP and .534 slugging %. Allen was a 7 time all-star, 1972 AL MVP and 1964 Rookie of the Year.
Whether Allen is worthy of the Hall of Fame has been hotly debated, with many people arguing he is the best player not in the Hall.[1] The arguments usually center around his very high career averages, batting (.292), slugging (.534), and on-base (.378).
I feel that he and Ron Santo should be in the Hall, what do you think about Allen?http://www.baseball-reference.com/a/alle…http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dick_Allen
