He led the league in starts for the season... he posted an ERA of over 7 for the season...p.s..you were probably alive when he did this...

Did this pitcher play for the Rockies, by any chance? -
sounds like Jose Lima or Livan Hernandez, but I don't remember either of their ERAs being that highComment

Jose Lima actually came pretty close to doing this too.Originally posted by Brooklyn View PostComment

I was actually quite surprised as well. Here's a clue if you're good at math. Take his total innings and subract the earned runs he gave up.. the answer would be 23. 300 innings? 200 ? 100? innings. there's your clue...Comment

I have a feeling this was in a strike year. '81 or '94.My top 10 players:
1. Babe Ruth
2. Barry Bonds
3. Ty Cobb
4. Ted Williams
5. Willie Mays
6. Alex Rodriguez
7. Hank Aaron
8. Honus Wagner
9. Lou Gehrig
10. Mickey MantleComment

Originally posted by janduscframe View PostI'll bite on the math. For an ERA of 7, to have a difference of 23, you'd have to pitch about 103 innings.

GiambiJuice hsa to be right - it has to be '81 or '94 for that low a total and still lead the league in starts.

I had to look it up as well. Glad I did because I'd have zero chance of naming him unless it was thru multiple choice."Chuckie doesn't take on 2-0. Chuckie's hackin'." - Chuck Carr two days prior to being released by the Milwaukee BrewersComment

I actually remember when the Phillies signed him to play AAA for them the next year. I'm thinking I must have looked up his previous season in my encyclopedia (pre-BBRef days of course) and wonder what exactly he could offer at his age.Originally posted by dgarza View Post"Chuckie doesn't take on 2-0.

Another clue: He received a Hall Of Fame vote."Heck, all I got was a $100 check. I should have kept it and framed it, but I had to eat".
