Stuck with Hobson way too long, ran Fisk into the ground, and of course kept Lee out of so many big games of which he would have at least won a few.

Can he stay healthy? Santana and Koufax are surprisingly comparable but I gotta give Koufax the edge for being more dominant in his prime.

Zimmer caused the loss of the 78 division in so many ways. Sending out Bobby Sprowl instead of Lee in the Boston Massacre. Having everything to do with Lee's dumping to Montreal where he went 16-12 with a sub 3.00 ERA in 79.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8805246453926595119.post-37188409185187054902014-08-31T17:45:59.624-04:002014-08-31T17:45:59.624-04:00Absolutely.

Grove won an MVP and nine ERA titles, whereas Spahn (who pitched four more years) never won an MVP and claimed just three ERA titles. bWAR rates Grove ahead of Spahn barely in terms of career value but considerably so in terms of peak, and I gotta say I agree with that.Tyler Maherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11438482483164686481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8805246453926595119.post-7079924026771968492014-08-31T01:08:46.009-04:002014-08-31T01:08:46.009-04:00Grove better than warren spahn?Grove better than warren spahn?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
