Default O/T For Stat Guys Only, I'm sure SABR guys are already looking it up

How about Bert Blyleven? 3700+ Ks, 287 wins and 3.31 ERA against a league ERA of 3.90 and he pitched in some the unfriendliest parks to pitchers there was. All the various HOF measures used on baseball-reference.com show him above HOF level except in black ink. The guy belongs, plain and simple. He was just unlucky enough to play for bad teams in hitter friendly parks.

I love pinatas. You get to beat the crap of something and get rewarded with candy.
