bk400- I caught the light hearted nature of your original post. As someone
who was never a Mets fan, I agree that Doc was like a comet in his most
impactful years. His 1985 season was incredible. However, I wouldn't say he
was the "best" even during his prime. On the other hand, wasn't it Vision in
an Avengers movie who said, "A thing isn't beautiful because it lasts"?

Although it wasn't part of your original post, I'll go down swinging against any
claims of Daryl Strawberry's excellence. My favorite memory of that clown
was Tracy Jones of the Reds coldcocking him during a fight THAT was rich!
