thanks Felipe as always!

Hale's case intrigues me. 4th all time in ERA. I thought he'd be a shoo-in, though he only won more than 17 games once...then again he won 3 ERA titles with 15-17 wins, so maybe it's just a case of wins being somewhat arbitrary...or did he win so few games because his low-end-starter endurance kept him from going deep into games (never threw a complete game!) and is that a legitimate case against him? Or, could he have had a longer leash, then he'd have more wins, a few CGs...and a worse ERA. With 230ish wins, a ~3.00 ERA, a couple more All Stars...would that have been enough?

also who voted against Piano Kelly lol I wouldn't want to date your daughter! (jk im sure it was just an oversight)

Agree. Voted both times for Gus Hale.
He would be the SP with lowest number of wins on our Hall, but one of best ERA of all times, he was just too good.
