Andy Morey

Post by Minions »

Because I'm a stats dork, and actually care about virtual accomplishments (LOL), I just happened to see that Andy Morey is 32 wins away from taking Greg Maddux's all time wins mark, and if he pitches that long he may also take the #1 spot for strikeouts from Maddux as well. Figuring I thought those marks would last a bit longer than they did, I'm a bit jaded by seeing someone that close, but like I said, I'm a dork for the virtual accomplishments, so if he's willing to stick around long enough, go for it Andy!!!

Wow! Didn't realize how high his totals had gotten. He'll likely need another 2 years to get there on wins, but certainly a possibility.

After a disappointing season, Morey retired 8 victories shy of reaching 300 (14 victories behind Maddux) and 198 K's short of Maddux, so his records are safe for a good while longer. Morey might've been the key player in my 6 year playoff run with 4 WS titles. His fate seemed to mirror the fate of my team as he was injured for the World Series the year I lost to Atlanta, and last year he wasn't good enough to crack the playoff rotation (and in fact was the losing pitcher in game 7 of the ALCS, giving up 2 runs in relief). Maybe we'll hire him as a pitching coach this year to keep his good mojo on our team!
