He may not be as good as the guys mentioned on your list but I still think he should get in. And he'll for sure be there before Thome and Delgado retire

Joe Carter's no longer eligible to be elected by the Hall of Fame, as he didn't even receive 5% of the vote from the election. He would have to be inducted by the Veteran's committe.
His highest MVP ranking was 3rd.
His career OBP was .306. In no way should anyone with a career OBP of .306 should not get into the Hall of Fame based on his offense.
Bobby Thomson hit a bigger home run, but he's not in the hall of fame. Carter's ball probably already is.
