1. DL from MN Posted: March 05, 2014 at 05:05 PM (#4666918)For me, it would be Doby and Kinder.
My '51 ballot must have been the closest to the consensus since the beginning of this project.
Doby got 6 votes.
(Initially, Garcia, Lopat and Wynn each received one low-ballot vote.)
Robin Roberts is the third different Phillie to win the pitching MMP. Jim Bunning won one in 1967 and Steve Carlton won two in 1972 and '80.
This is Ted Williams first AL MMP though I have a feeling he'll win a few more as we move both backwards and forwards in time. Williams joins Yastrzemski ('67, '68 and '70), Fred Lynn ('79), Dwight Evans ('81) and Wade Boggs ('86) as Red Sox MMPs and Jim Rice ('78) as Red Sox position player MMPs.
-Garver 5.6 bWAR, 118 ERA+, all in front of a bad defense and in a park with a 107 PF
-Wynn 274 IP, 126 ERA+
-Pierce 133 ERA+, 240 IP
Missed him. Don't have a replacement handy. Guess that's more evidence the AL was woeful in talent compared to the NL.
2. Rogovin
3. Pierce
Scratch that: Wynn, Kinder and Garver.
1. Early Wynn
2. Mike Garcia
3. Allie "underrated by WAR, overrated by Tubbs, but better than "The Jack" Morris' mustache in the postseason" Reynolds
If we are to consider pitching and hitting done by the pitchers then:
1. Wynn
2. Garver
3. Garcia
1. Garver
2. Kinder
3. Wynn
1- GARVER (12th)
2- WYNN (15th)
3- PARNELL (19th)
my best pitcher w/out a vote: Mel Parnell (19th)
1. Lopat (I'm the guy who gave him his low-ballot vote)
2. Garcia (just off-ballot for me)
3. Billy Pierce
Early Wynn would be 4th.
1. Wynn
2. Rogovin
3. Parnell
2) Wynn
3) Lopat
1st: Wynn- 19 points, 4 1sts
2nd: Garver- 15 points, 4 1sts
3rd: Lopat- 4 points, 1 1st
4th: Kinder- 4 points
4th: Rogovin- 4 points
6th: Garcia - 3 points
6th: Parnell- 3 points
8th: Pierce- 2 points
Each of the eight pitchers received multiple votes.
