I'm pretty sure he's the only pitcher in history to pitch that long and never finish below .500.
Andy Pettitte has never finished below .500, although he stands at 7-8 this season.

If you compare Tim Hudson's number's to those of existing Hall of Fame members, he's as good or better than a number of pitchers. Unfortunately, many of the voters believe they need to raise the Hall of Fame's standards by holding modern players to a higher standard. I think it's a bunch of baloney, but I realize I'm in the minority here. I say open the floodgates. If a pitcher was as good as Jesse Haines, Eppa Rixey, Chief Bender, Lefty Gomez or a bunch of other guys, he should get in ...

I'm with you- I think that he could get in depending on how voters see the steroid-users...

I guess Pettite qualifies because he wasn't below .500, but he was 14-14 in 2008. Hudson has been over .500 his entire career. 100 wins above loses is considered HOFer. He's at 94. Never a losing season. I think he should be in.

Pettitte is better than Hudson. Pettitte is 102 wins over losses. Pettite likely will not make the HOF. Hudson won't either. IMO.

Tim Hudson couldn't carry Dave Stewart's jock strap.
