SocraticGadfly: Mike Mussina — Hall of Famer, or not?

Mike Mussina — Hall of Famer, or not?

King Kaufman makes a strong argument without legislative approval.

I’m not sure he should be a first-rounder, but I think he should qualify.

Or, following up Kaufman, and with statistical analysis to back it up, per Baseball-Reference.com:

Mike Mussina, almost to a T, is Bert Blyleven.

Look at the bottom of both players’ pages and the HOF-related numbers.

So, Yankee fans, and Yankee baseball-writing fans (and yes, you exist) — if you do want to vote the Moose in, you have to vote Bert in first.
