I'm really not that against Sutter's election. I do believe the very, very best of the closers should make it, and Sutter is definitely on that top level (he's just not first IMO).
My biggest problem with Sutter's election (other than being elected before Gossage) is what about Quisenberry? If Sutter is in, why not Quisenberry? Quisenberry isn't credited with creating a pitch, but he was at least as good as Sutter, if not better. Yet Quisenberry was dropped on his first try and Sutter is now elected.
Does anyone else feel that this is a total disjustice to Quisenberry and that writers should be ashamed of their collective ignorance?
