it does not matter if they are eligible or not.

I think most historians would pick Ron Santo as the best eligible player not in the Hall - him, or Bert Blyleven. The best non-eligible retired player, clearly, would be Joe Jackson.
Ted Williams is probably the best player never to win a World Series, although you could argue for Barry Bonds (going strictly by the record books and ignoring any controversies).

Two players not in the Hall of Fame: Pete Rose and Lee Smith (478 career saves. What else does a guy have to do?)
Never to win a World Series: This isn't even arguable. Ted Williams.

Very good question because all of the greats would qualify for one or both. However, I am going to go with Jim Rice of the Red Sox. Never went to a world series let-alone win one and really should be in the hall of fame with the numbers he put up.

Not to win a world series is a tie between Ty Cobb and Ted Williams.
Greatest not in the hall Rickey Henderson. He wasn't the greatest players but he should be in.
#1 All-time stolen bases
#1 All-time runs scored
I know about Rickey. The question is wide open in general.
