What really hurt Parker is that he had some very average years right after his peak. From 1980-1983 his OPS+ was only 107. Traditional stat-wise He averaged 11 HR and hit .280 with 56 RBI per year in that stretch.

I've always been kind of fascinated by good hitters who didn't walk...but also didn't strike out very much either.
Think Tony Gwynn, Don Mattingly, Yogi Berra, etc.... Those guys just believed in making contact, and could almost at will foul pitches off until they got something they liked. Not saying it was the best way to go about things "analytically"....but interesting.... |

Those were his cocaine years. He stopped using in 1982 because he knew it was affecting his performance and had a resurgence in 1985-86.
