Based on the above, Crawford should be an easy yes, despite his middling home run totals. A Gold Glove shortstop with over 2800 hits, 800 extra base hits, plus excellent baserunning should be near automatic. His total of 92.6 WAR would, if he retired today, be 41st overall, a hair above Al Kaline and Wade Boggs. I wouldn't vote for Wacha -- based on run-of-the-mill career totals, and no real peak to speak of (no 6 WAR seasons). If he had a strong postseason record, he'd warrant some consideration.
