Had to resurrect this thread now that Dawson is in the HOF. I still don't get how Dawson won the 1987 MVP award - his OBP that year was lower than the other 17 position players who received MVP votes in 1987 - and his career OBP is absolutely anemic. There's no other way to say it: Dawson was an absolute out machine during his career. Anyway, while he's not as poor a recent BBWAA selection as Jim Rice, a fair case can be made for dozens of other neglected guys now that the Hawk has earned HOF enshrinement.
