On one level, it's every bit as stupid as it sounds. No, none of those other guys were two-way players and most were way before the DH. Nothing negative about Shohei - just emphasizes how unusual he is in today's game!

John Hiller in 1974 had 31 decisions (17-14 in 59 games) for the record, but Mike Marshall had back-to-back seasons of 25 and 27 (14-11 in 92 games for the 1973 Expos, then 15-12 in 106 games for the 1974 Dodgers).

Four are active (Judge, Trout, Soto, Ohtani). Three would be in, but for, you know, the unpleasantness (Bonds, Joe Jackson, McGwire). The other two are 19th century notables Pete Browning (163, career ended 1894) and Dave Orr (162 in 3411 PA, career ended 1890). Not much doubt Allen is worthy.

Lots of respect for Bill James, but he is not infallible. Here’s a fact that I found interesting. There are 9 players with Allen's career OPS+ of 156 or better who have 3000+ PA and are not in the HOF.
