It's easy to forget just how few players establish themselves as regulars every season.
Hitters with 1,000-plus plate appearances, Hall of Fame eligible (excluding players primarily pitchers)
I'd like to see a pitcher who had 1,000-plus plate appearances before age 22. Joe Nuxhall could have done it if he stayed in the rotation from his debut onward.
Hrmppph. There's five minutes I'll never get back again.
Well, the Hall of Fame is a pretty high bar.
EDIT: Looks like the technical winner is Jackie Robinson, who was 28 years, 3 months.
Also, Gary Sheffield, Edgar Renteria, Andruw Jones, Robby Alomar, Adrian Beltre, and Reuben Sierra. So, that's 17 out of 47 eligible. And some of those eligible but not in absolutely should be, like Santo and Trammell (but also some who are in and shouldn't be like Travis jackson and fred Lindstrom.) Also, a couple of guys who may have made it if not for the war, a guy who may have made it if not for a beaning, and a guy who died at age 22.
Perhaps, cautionary for anyone trading for Miggy, the list also includes a bunch of guys who's best years were behind then at age 24, like Vada Pinson, Cesar Cedeno, Claudell Washington, and Butch Wynegar.
An interesting list.
