Robin Roberts
Robin was always one of the finest gentleman to see at a BB card show. While autographing the items you presented
to him, he would smile at you and have a friendly conversation. I saw him a few months ago at the Philly Show. A huge crowd lined up to see him and get his autograph. He appeared to be quite robust; and, looked like he could go out to the mound and pitch a few innings. If Roberts had pitched on better teams during his career, he would have won 350 games. This news is really stunning to me, today. May GOD BLESS his soul and comfort his family. TED Z

He won 286 even on those mostly bad teams. As I recall Bill James ranked him #16 of all time, well ahead of some pitchers who typically would be thought of as ranked higher.
