I think the WS argument suffers from major sample-size issues.

No one gets in based on WS numbers alone, but it is a factor that can push an otherwise close decision over the threshold.
In the case of Morris, it takes an otherwise mediocre career and brings it close. Morris biggest weakness is that he would have the worst ERA of any pitcher in the hall, and voters don't want to be viewed as lowering the standards of the hall.
