Is he a World Series legend? No. But no man other than Ruth hit like he does and pitched. And pitched well. Every year that he pitches and is even an average pitcher the fact that he is also a DH? He is the MVP of baseball every single year. He is the best player in the game. It is a one in 1 million thing to make the major leagues as a pitcher or a hitter. To do it as both? At the same time? Unheard of
So he could be worse than he is and still be the best player in the game. As I recall, there was a pitcher maybe for the Cardinals who came up and was quite a sensation. But then he completely lost the plate and I want to say that he came back as an outfielder a few years later. He really did not have an impact either way, but it was remarkable that he made the major, a mediocre pitcher and a mediocre outfielder. This guy is doing both at the same time.
Barry needs to be removed.
Need more pitchers.
And I’m sorry. Out shohei there. Like top 5.
