John Smoltz
 

If he gets to 200 wins, is he a HOF?

Re: John Smoltz
 

Smoltz iz a lock at 200. I'm not so sure he wouldn't get in right now.

Re: John Smoltz
 

I didn't think so until I started looking at the numbers, you may be right.

Re: John Smoltz
 

I didn't realize that he should hit the 2500 K mark his next start.

It is pretty unbeleivable that this guy has flown under the radar as much as he has. Everyone thinks he's good, but I don't think I'm alone when I say I didn't think I'd be seeing him at Cooperstown.

Playoff game 7. You get any active pitcher to start. Smoltz is easily top 5, probably top 3.

Start looking up playoff records. Get back to me when you're done.

Rocket, Schilling, Smoltz. Those are the top 3.

Flown under what radar? You're not from the South. I grew up down there and everybody knows Smoltz pwns.

But take any decent pitcher and have him throw for Leo Mazzone for 15 years, you could end up with a HOF career. The man is a genius.

Definitely not from the South. I knew how good Smoltz was, I just didn't realize how good his numbers were. good point about Mazzone, if he can turn Jaret Wright into an Ace, I can only imagine what he can do for someone who actually knows how to pitch.
