Re: Bruce Sutter elected to Hall of Fame

The real tragedy is that Blyleven, 5th all-time in Ks with an incredible number of complete games and shutouts, sits on the outside looking in. With Sutter I think of a blown-out elbow. In fact, he makes me think of all those pitchers of the '80s who were brilliant for a few years living off the split-fingered fastball, then blew out their arms throwing it. Sometimes I wonder if members of the BBWAA actually paid attention to the games they've supposedly watched.
