The Bizarro Hall of Fame: Introducing the Class of 1984

As part of an ongoing project, One More Dying Quail will be profiling the 182 current members of the Bizarro Hall of Fame, an organization that currently exists only in my mind. It was created in the wake of Major League Baseball’s infamous Steroid Era as a way of honoring those players whose careers were perfectly mediocre: the only requirement is that a candidate be listed on the official Baseball Hall of Fame ballot and receive zero votes.
Class of 1984
Ron Fairly – A three-time World Series winner with the Los Angeles Dodgers, Fairly was the only player to play for the original Montreal Expos in 1969 (he wasn’t an original Original, joining the team via trade in June) and the original Toronto Blue Jays in 1977. His greatest individual performance came in the 1965 World Series against the Twins, when he hit .379 with two homeruns and probably would have won the Most Valuable Player award if not for a guy by the name of Koufax.

(All Hall of Fame voting results were obtained from the official web site of the National Baseball Hall of Fame. Statistical information included in postings for the Bizarro Hall of Fame was, unless otherwise noted, originally compiled by Baseball-Reference.com.)
