Anybody remember this stat line from a 20 year-old phenom in 1985?


24W 4L 1.53ERA 35GS 16CG 8 Shutouts 276.2IP 268Strikeouts 0.965 Whip


Let's not forget he also came in 2nd place in Cy Young voting the year before as a 19 year-old Rookie. Imagine what his card would be worth if he came up today.


Oh, not to mention he also played in the biggest market in the country.

Yeah I made the Gooden point in another thread, it really goes to show how a few games or even a few years doth not a career make.
