An aside, if you took the prime of others careers and compared their OPS and OBP to Edgar he'd drop significantly.

He doesn't have any of the measurable stats (Career hits, career home runs, career runs, etc) because his career didn't really start until he was 27 or 28.
If you took other players best ten years, they'd look even more stellar than Edgar. In reality, a shortened career is a detriment to being in the HOF. In stat land, you can spout off OPS and OBP numbers because he only played during the prime, and in the greatest hitting era of baseball ever.
