Tim Hudson has always been a guy I thought flew under the radar. He was a really great pitcher and won nearly 100 more games than he lost in a tough era to do that.

I liked Hudson, and he's definitely superior to even some recently elected HOF ptichers, but I doubt he gets in. He was very consistent but rarely remarkable.

The day he won both ends of a (sort of) doubleheader.

How about the most under appreciated stretch in three years, and maybe the best ever....Greg Maddux first three years as a Brave from 1993-95.... 55-17 W-L record, 680 Innings pitched, only 25 Home runs, ERA 1.77, 30 complete games

How about Randy Johnson from 1999 to 2001? He went 57 and 22 with a 2.54 ERA and 1,083 strike outs in only 707 innings, allowing only 590 hits.

Nobody in history ever expanded the strike zone as much as Maddux did. I think he was a bit underappreciated because people love power pitchers, but if you liked to watch artistry, he was the man.

Catfish was good at expanding the zone, too.

How about Dave Stewart? 84 wins in 4 years 1987-1990, 41 complete games, 718 strikeouts... but also pitched for Oakland...
