Stat of the day

You're right. Though I do notice pretty much all of those pitchers are from the early 80s. A different league back then.

The utility does.

That's interesting. I still wonder if maybe there are statistics OOTP wasn't tracking that makes the WAR incomplete.

Was WAR being tracked during his heyday?

I was looking through the single season WAR for pitchers and surprisingly, Pancho only had 2 top 20 single season performances.

I didn't expect to see that.

Parangoa and The "Magician" Joe Ponte, should be in the Hall. I know I'm pushing it with Nathan but I think his "type" of pitching keeps him out even though he was damn good for a long time. There is something to be said about a great pitch to contact pitchers like him.

But aside from my personal agenda to get Nathan in, there is no doubt to me that Ponte got hosed.

I didn't realize how good you were in the 90's.

Mainly because I was too damn stubborn (or stupid) to realize that I wasn't going to beat a cheating commish.

The reports of my death have been greatly exaggerated.

Chuck Lindsey made his first All-Star Game this year, at age 36.

Aside from the inaugural draft guys, have we had a first-time All-Star this old before?

Talk about being ignored.

If you measure your success strictly on Regular Season wins... you're spot on....

Oh... wait.... spot won in the playoffs.

;)

Yes.

Yes we did.

Topped the charts for decades after "death"....sounds about right.
