Question:

Each November the Baseball Writers’ Association of America (BBWAA) releases its list of that year’s nominees for induction into the National Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, New York. There are 575 voting members of the BBWAA, and candidates must be named on 75% of the ballots cast to gain entry into the National Baseball Hall of Fame. There is no limit to the number of players who can be nominated or who can be elected. Go to the BBWAA Web site at http://bbwaa.com/ and from the list of this year’s nominees select the five or six “field players” (as opposed to pitchers) who you think are the top candidates for selection, and develop an AHP model using your own criteria to rank these candidates. Criteria might include, among other things, hits, lifetime batting average, home runs, runs batted in, runs, stolen bases, awards, years played, fielding percentage, number of World Series participated in, and a comparison with Hall of Famers overall and at their field position (e.g., catcher, first base, outfield). Player bios including their playing statistics can be obtained by searching the Internet.
