Suzuki, Hideki - SP, PIT -- Given 3 WS titles, good playoff stats may have put him over the edge for me, but effect was the opposite.
LCS: 2-7 in 13 games (9 starts), with 1.59 ERA / 6.54 WHIP
WS: 2-0 in 8 games (4 starts), but accompanied by 1.84 ERA /5.91 WHIP
Sveum, Len - SS, DET/BAL -- Again wanted to vote him in given the 3k hits, but he appears to be a poor man's Barry Larkin (of this league, not MLB) with less power, speed, and defense. Still a quality all star caliber player, but not sure HOF.

- 245 W and a .631 winning percentage
- 127 CG with 37 shutouts, good for 23rd and 12th all-time
- 4 sub-3.00 ERA seasons and 5 sub-1.15 WHIP seasons
- 3 consecutive 20+ W seasons, plus 5 more of 18-19
- Career WHIP of 1.23 (45th) and ERA of 3.68 (88th), BUT a 9-year peak of...
3.07 ERA, 1.14 WHIP, 165-62 (.727 W%, 18.3-6.9 average)
And he won a Cy Young. This guy did it all and shouldn't be penalized for starting his career more slowly with a 9-year streak of dominance like that. BTW, in the 10th year, he went 9-1 with a 2.75 ERA and 1.25 WHIP in relief before retiring.
Vote him in!

I have to disagree on Suzuki. The guy was a durable winner over the long haul--and also a dominant pitcher. Consider:- 245 W and a .631 winning percentage
- 127 CG with 37 shutouts, good for 23rd and 12th all-time
- 4 sub-3.00 ERA seasons and 5 sub-1.15 WHIP seasons

- Career WHIP of 1.23 (45th) and ERA of 3.68 (88th), BUT a 9-year peak of...

That's a heck of a 9 year stretch. And even though he had a 4.19 ERA the year before that particular stretch, he was still 19-8 and led the league in CG and SHO.
WAS vote cast.

Ok I've been convinced : )That's a heck of a 9 year stretch. And even though he had a 4.19 ERA the year before that particular stretch, he was still 19-8 and led the league in CG and SHO.
