Various Negro League and Cuban web sites credit Satchel Paige with having 1,500+ career wins and over 300 shoutouts!!!

Can you only imagine what his MLB stats would be if the Yankees had been able to sign him to pitch for them from 1927-1947 on those powerhouse teams???

Heck, having 2 or 3 days rest between starts would have been TOO MUCH for him!! He probably would have pitched every other game!!

Stupid color barrier. Grrrrrrrrrrrr
