A good rationale is that Mussina has been very good, but was he ever great? Was he ever one of the top three pitchers that you'd select to pitch one game for you? Would we be having this conversation if he spent his career with the Detroit Tigers? Then, of course, the usual arguments: should the Hall of Fame be more for players who were very good for a longer perior or better than that for a shorter period? Should it be the hall of Mussinas or the hall of Schillings? Or both?
I'd put Moose in, but I don't think it's necessarily crystal clear.
