Thanks for reading. Please follow Cooperstown Cred on Twitter cooperstowncred. I think you mean Kevin Brown not Black. Brown was a very good pitcher but is nowhere near Tom Seaver. Tom Seaver has almost as many shutouts 61 as Brown has complete games Seaver also has more complete games than Brown has wins Tim Hudson should be a Hall of Famer.

Bruce Sutter had 8 excellent years as a relief pitcher, and four really bad ones. In those 8 years, he pitched fewer than innings. Tim Hudson had a 17 year career, including 11 outstanding years, and two good years. The other years he pitched part time. Relief pitchers are like pinch hitters.

They don't play much. Trevor Hoffman pitched for 18 years, but only had a total of IP. Tim Hudson had more than Who was more valuable? But Hoffman could never have done what Hudson did, or he would have. For some reason, everyone realizes that good starters are more valuable than good relievers while the players are active, but once they retire, voters become enamored of the relievers! It doesn't make sense. It 's easy to judge starters.

Wins are mostly meaningless. They are a team stat' es[ecially in the modern game where relievers are used so frequently. Inning for inning, he was a better pitcher than any of them. Now many of the men named above had quite a few more innins pitched than Tim, and that is a legitimate reason to consider them candidates for the hall.

But much of that has to do with the era they pitched in. Many of these guys played with a rotation that allowed them to pitch every fourth day, with relievers rarely used. Tim's IP is a very significant longevity number for the times he pitched. Jimmy Key and David Cone have similar numbers, and should also be considered. Schilling is somewhere between severely emotionally impaired and misanthropic psychopath. Tim Hudson was a terrific pitcher for the vast majority of his career.

He was steady and consistent. I was comfortable calling Hudson the No. Looking at his career from start to finish, he was still productive last in his career, and it looked like he got out while he was still pretty decent.

He only had an ERA 4 or higher three times in his year career. Madison Bumgarner was hot that year. A record with a. Hudson was very good, but he just misses the cut for me. Clemens, Johnson, Maddux, Seaver, schilling, k brown, smoltz, mussina and Hudson.

There is no way this guy should fall off the ballot in year Schilling still being on the ballot despite for off the field reasons being a no doubt hall of Famer is obviously an issue. And brown got dismissed because of ped allegations.
