1956 Rookie of the Year. 1961 NL MVP. 1966 AL MVP. 1966 Triple Crown. Finished in the top 5 in MVP voting 3 other times (once with Cincy, twice with the Birds). Fourteen-time All-Star. Frank Robinson was a no-brainer for the Hall of Fame in 1982 (which means 45 voters had no brain and should have been immediately stripped of their privilege to vote). He was inducted with Hank Aaron, both on the first ballot (duh). Future Hall of Famers Juan Marichal, Harmon Killebrew, and Don Drysdale would all have to wait their turn, falling short of the required 75% that year. Former Reds teammate Vada Pinson received 6 votes; Leo Cardenas 1 vote; Tommy Harper and Deron Johnson none.
Robinson was traded from the Reds to the Orioles prior to his 1966 Triple Crown MVP season. The Reds received pitcher Milt Pappas, pitcher Jack Baldschun and outfielder Dick Simpson.
