Friggin Z keeps sticking on me. Can a mod spell his name right for me?
What do you think about Fernando? Should he be in? His era was 3.54 and his record was 173-153. Those are very solid numbers, if not quite the caliber of most of the other pitchers enshrined.
However, it is not the hall of stats. it is the hall of fame. and for those of us who were around in his early days, we remember he was about the biggest thing going for a few years. He was huge, especially for those in Mexico, obviously. He carried that country on his back. But in the USA too, he captured the imagination like few had before him.
so should he be in? my gut tells me the veterans committee puts him in at some point
