Thanks Ted!
TedZ,
Thanks for the thread and I agree with your views on the HOF candidacy. I wish you had several votes on the veterans' committee!

Although, Reynolds was Casey Stengel's premier starting Pitcher, Casey would not hesitate to use Allie in relief in a crucial game. Especially, when the Yankees
relief Ace, Joe Page, was no longer on the team. Furthermore, Allie was a pretty good batter.
Allie deserves to be in the Hall of Fame, and another factor which I don't understand is why the Yankees never retired his uniform # 22.
Allie Reynolds and Joe Page, perfect together......

Take care Tony,
