Yes, I doubt the hoopla would be quite the same over a common card even if truly scarce.

I don't know that "all pitchers" was meant literally. I would agree with whoever said that however in principle that for star / HOF pitchers - the value proposition is down considerably when compared to star hitters. I don't know if more hitters just than I realize can have that claim made or not, but there are certainly notable examples of both. This is a case sometimes where "sport good" or "sport popular" doesn't translate directly to "hobby popular." It's hard to imagine a player on his career much better or with more accolades than Frank Robinson - but you can still routinely get a nice 1959 Topps card of him for like 20 bucks. Defies logic.
