27. Sam Thompson

1. Babe Ruth
2. Henry Aaron
3. Mel Ott. Flips places with Robinson from the prelim.
4. Frank Robinson
5. Al Kaline. Flips places with Clemente from the prelim
6. Roberto Clemente
7. Pete Rose. I zero out the late career below-replacement level seasons
8. Reggie Jackson
9. Larry Walker
10. Joe Jackson
11. Sam Crawford
12. Harry Heilmann
13. Paul Waner
14. Tony Gwynn
15. Gary Sheffield. Not wholly buying the badness of his defense, per total zone.
16. Reggie Smith. Gets a year of credit for play in Japan. Amazingly underappreciated player.
17. Dwight Evans
18. Enos Slaughter. 3 Years war credit. Still a low-peak player, but a very nice career.
19. King Kelly
20. Bobby Abreu
21. Elmer Flick. Was just ahead of Keeler when elected. I think the electorate was on target.
22. Willie Keeler
23. Sammy Sosa. I don't fully buy the assessment of his situational hitting as epically bad, but that flaw drops him from the Kelly/Abreu level.
24. Dave Winfield. Moved up a little from the prelim. Agree he is likely underrated by bWAR, but not as much as some argue. And somebody has to be at the bottom of this ballot. Winfield is bottom quartile, but still solidly in the HoM
25. Bobby Bonds
26. Vladimir Guerrero. Again, somebody has to be at the bottom. Doesn't have as much career or as high a peak as most here, but enough of both to be clearly in.
27. Sam Thompson. Only elected rightfielder who I think is below the in-out line. Not a dreadful choice, but the worst-ranking player from the 1890s elected.

Okay - I wanted to post this in the discussion thread first, but the site won't let me. I'm also posting later because I've been revising/simplifying my system. I'm still peak-heavy, but I've reduced some of the emphasis on rate, relying primarily on WAA/WAG with bonus points for MMMP/All-Star awards in my system plus a cWPA-based post-season bonus, if applicable.

I little bit about my rankings: I have always been more of a peak/prime voter, interested in how great a player was in comparison to the average regular over the course of their career. With that in mind, I look at both Fangraphs' & Baseball-Reference's WAR, adjusting for season-length based on EricJ's method. I then adjust for average, excluding seasons in which a player was below average, and adjusting for the effect of segregation as calculated by Eric C. (Thank you both Erics for sharing your hard work!). Other adjustments I try to make include adjusting for time missed outside their control while healthy, and for playing in a weaker league. So, here are my rankings of members of the Hall of Merit considered to be right fielders!

1. Babe Ruth
2. Hank Aaron
3. Mel Ott
4. Frank Robinson
5. Roberto Clemente
6. Al Kaline

21. Elmer Flick
22. Vladimir Guerrero
23. Dave Winfield
24. King Kelly
25. Willie Keeler
26. Enos Slaughter
27. Sam Thompson

I haven't constructed a PHoM, but the only player on this list who would clearly not make it is Sam Thompson.

All 27 of these RFs are in my PHOM, so I cast no aspersions on the names at the bottom of the list.

Ichiro, if eligible, would rank between Kaline and Rose (with credit for his pre-MLB play).

Guapo #20 is Bobby Bonds, not Barry.

My RF rankings this go around:

1. Babe Ruth
2. Hank Aaron
3. Mel Ott
4. Frank Robinson
