>>68463962
FIRST ROUND EXIT
>>68463496
It honestly is stupid. Sure, he would've been getting hits in MLB if he was here instead of Japan during those years, but he definitely would've had less. It's cool to keep track of I guess, but anybody who takes it seriously is a complete idiot
>>68463887
At least you won't be in Bakersfield :)
>>68464102
>definitely
No, it's not definite. That's why it doesn't count.
>>68464102
>he would've had less
MLB plays ten more games a year than they do in the NPB m8
>>68464152
I'm not saying it should count you fucking retard. Did you even understand my post? Do you actually think Ichiro, a great hitter and MVP wouldn't have gotten any hits in Major League Baseball? Quit taking things so literally you idiot
>>68464174
NPB hits are like minor league hits due to jap manlets fielding slow
>>68464245
I'm aware of what you're saying, I'm saying your reasoning (he definitely would have hit less) is stupid. The reason it doesn't count is precisely because of the opposite of that statement, because it's not definite.
>>68464249
And Rose played against babby tier pitching
What's your point
>>68464174
Against a Mickey Mouse competition. Literal whos that couldn't hack it in the American majors were getting 50 dinger seasons in Japan, it's a fucking joke league.

I'd say yeah he is.
>>68464475

And I bet that's what burns him the most. Knowing ichiro is a virtual lock to make the HOF.
where the fuck is Danny Norris
get the fuck out of the van and get in the rotation
how many hits would ichiro have in MLB if he played in coors his whole career, probably 4000 at least
>>68464940
I mean just since 2001, not his whole whole career. he'd probably have 6000 then
>>68464873

>>68465193
What's your point? He can come off the bench as a pinch hitter because substitutions are more common with pitchers having to bat. He's more useful in the NL than he would be in the AL.

There's been a lot of Hall of Fame debate about Jack Morris. Not a ton of "80s pitchers" in the Hall in general, though.
Here's the list of HOF starting pitchers who had their "peak" between roughly 1980 and 1990 (give or take a year each way):
>Nolan Ryan (you could argue 70s too but that's semantics)
>Bert Blyleven (same)
That's it. Many of the other big 80s pitchers seem to be either just-not-enough cases, or guys who you'd say, "Oh, I remember [for example] Fernando Valenzuela. He was great for a few years." Guys that don't "pass the eye test", so to speak, and the saber stats seem to agree. Valenzuela, for example, has 37.4 career WAR;
Ron Guidry 48.1; Doc Gooden, 53.2 (50 seems to be the magic number to be even considered Hall-worthy in sabermetrics [with certain exceptions]).
If I forgot any of your favorite 80s pitchers, go here to check it out:

you're thinking of the whos
Who here thinks that they should do away with 100% guaranteed money on every fucking contract in the mlb
They should have 1/3 - 1/2 of total contract max guaranteed money so that if a player doesn't perform, there's a legit risk for him so he has more incentive to play better
>>68478407
Most teams think they can fix the mechanics or that once a player has gone a while without any issues, they're in the green.
An even bigger issue is just pure denial ie; the Mets
>>68478474
Smart teams usually take out insurance on players they deem to be liabilities.
>>68478474
how about teams just don't sign 30yo+ pitchers to long-term contracts for hundreds of millions. or hitters (>Miggy) for that matter. or would that be considered collusion?
