And on top of that, 600 innings is all that’s needed to be the GOAT? Even in modern baseball, say 150 innings per year, that’s only 4 years. So the HOF requires 10 years to even make the HOF as a low tier HOFer. But somehow you can be the greatest pitcher ever pitching 4 years? And not even qualify for the HOF? That is jumping the shark.
