1. Mr Dashwood Posted: October 06, 2012 at 12:21 PM (#4256726)Bill James agrees.
(Btw-fra paolo- do you take your name from the Stephenson novel "Anethem"?
Back in the 1990s, my friends found my enthusiasm for Gregorian chant, Renaissance polyphony and the paintings of Fra Angelico so amusing that they gave me the nickname, which I was proud to adopt.
1961 pitching MMP (Drysale, Ford and Spahn received one 10th place vote each)
1963 AL MMP (Peters, Allison and Howard finished 9th through 11th, separated by 4 points)
1961 AL pitching MMP (see above)
1962 AL pitching MMP (Aguirre and Pascual were 9th and 10th, separated by 5 points)
1966 AL pitching MMP (no AL pitchers received votes)
1967 AL pitching MMP (Joe Horlen was the only AL pitcher to receive any votes and he got 1)
1961 NL pitching MMP (see above)
1976 NL pitching MMP (Jones, Seaver and Carlton received 1 vote each)
If we wanted to settle the issue, it would require 6 runoffs ('61 for all pitchers, '63 for all AL, '62, '66, '67 for AL pitchers and '76 for NL pitchers).
Randy Jones
Tom Seaver
J R Richard
John Montefusco.
I'm always in favour of more voting fun, but what do others think?
Not a big deal either way, but if it happens I'd certainly (try and) take part.
Best pitcher to not receive a vote - John Montefusco - also my NL top pitcher. Then Seaver, Niekro, Koosman.
I would go with Ron LeFlore and Rollie Fingers.
