Cooper and Keith are pretty damn close. Each played parts of 17 years, most of which overlapped. In about 200 fewer games, Cooper has more HR (241-162), RBI (1125-1071) and a higher BA (.298 -.296). They have they same number of top 5 MVP finishes (KH has the one win, of course) and Cooper has three times as many All Star appearances (15-5). Cooper has fewer Gold Gloves, naturally (11-2) but was no defensive slouch. He stole more bases, but had fewer runs scored. Keith bests him in OPS (.821 to .803), and if you factor in integrity, sportsmanship and character, well....Cooper never testified at the Pittsburgh drug trial. If Keith deserves the HoF, and he does, than Cooper does too. Dale Murphy, as well.
