If you had to win a series or a season, maybe you pass on him. If you were picking knowing that you got his career, he was in rare air.

And I find myself seeing merit in Concepcion, Musial, Blair, F Robinson, and even K Hernandez. He was an amazing fielder, and he had his head in the game. I saw both Hernandez and Winfield in 1979, I'd pick Hernandez over Winfield, easily, that year.

Ed Reulbach was something else.

I would take Spahn all day and twice on Sunday.
