Default Survey: Most overated pitcher (pre-1930)

Posted By: Gilbert Maines

I can not think of Kofax as the most "anything" since he did not have sufficient good years to qualify. Or maybe he did, but where do you draw the line? Herb Score was unbelievable, as was Ryne Duren during that period - but only for a little while. Heck, for a much shorter interval, Vander Meer was actually unhittable. Is two games enough? How about Drysdale or Herschiser's scoreless inning strings?

No. You gotta do the time. And since he hasn't done the time, I guess he qualifies as the most overrated modern pitcher.

And 'Ol Pete Alexander with half a bag on is my one game pitcher.
