But we still have a lot of hall of famers who were never added back to the league. Plus, we've of course inducted our own guys as the league has progressed.
It really depends on your league settings. If you're playing a league based on the real major leagues, then it's probably a good fit for your league. If your teams only play 100 games a year, then something a little lower than 50 might be a good bench mark. I think it makes more sense to look at the values relative to other players in your league rather than thinking of a specific number as a cutoff. That's probably true for all stats.
