SEASON 25 HOF - Season of the Starting Pitcher! (by 69cubs)

I was previewing this season's eligible Hall of Fame candidates.

I first looked at the position players (because the page defaults there). I saw some outstanding players, but none jumped off the page as a sure-fire HOFer.

Then I looked at the pitcher's section and was surprised to see that there are eight 200 game winners eligible this season!

Below is the list of the SP's, that are eligible for the HOF, with over 185 wins.I highlighted in green the category leader and yellow the other top of the group in the categories I put in.

I have 2 pitchers I want to mention, Jackie Little's stats, with exception of wins, are probably some of the best you have in the list. And, Banana Hawkins, how in the world did he win 200 games?

Looking at the stats, I determined that I probably will not vote for any position players this season and might give all 5 of my votes to pitchers. Based on what i see below, I rank the SPs eligible in this order:

  1. Jackie Little
  2. Giomar Diaz
  3. Terry Murphy
  4. Yogi Cooper, Ken Atkins tied
  5. Dustan Stoops
  6. Oscar Martin
  7. Torey Arnold
