Thanks for the warm welcome.
Yeah, I know

Led the League in losses. In his SABR bio, they quote Babe Ruth. He called Paul his "cousin" and spoke of his obvious 'tell' as to which pitch he was about to throw. It makes you wonder, if he was so obviously tipping his pitches, wouldn't a coach correct that? Did they even have pitching coaches back then?!?!
