You Knew This Hijack Was Comin\'....
Jack Morris deserves to be in far more than Blyleven. Morris was clearly the best pitcher in the American League for 10-12 years; ERA, ShmERA. Blyleven was very, very good, and I feel he's right on the edge of belonging in the HOF, but Morris was truly dominant.
I agree that there're a bunch of guys in who don't belong, and also that the primary criteria should be performance vis. contemporaries. Morris was the best pitcher of the 80's.
And, oh yeah, he once pitched a pretty good game in October of '91. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
