MBL IS NOT A TRUE INDICATOR OF A PLAYERS GREATNESS.

Many players of Organized Baseball never played a single game in the MLB but were better than most who did. Why? For most of the last century major league clubs were concentratred primarily in the Northeast and Middle West. Having no desire to leave the sunshine and home surrondings of California and the Southern States to play in the East. Expansion of the Majors to those areas did not come until 1957 in California and 1962 in Texas. Even today, much of the US is without a MBL team, say nothing of Canada, the Caribbean, and Mexico. When MLB did come west, where do you think the players that filled those rosters came from, the Minor Leagues.
