Seems to me like he was still pitching I’d hear his name so often.

He's the answer to a few trivia questions.

Last no hitter in post season
Cy Young in both leagues

Most MLB wins by a pitcher who died in a plane crash.

That sucks. Hope he gets into Cooperstown posthumously, even though baseball-reference has him in Mike Mussina pitcher purgatory. Hard to argue against him being one of the very best pitchers of the 2000s.

How is he not a HOFer?

because Cooperstown is dumb and overvalues W-L

He won 200 games. That's a lot of games nowadays. He's in. He has got to be.

If we are going to lower standards that much, there's about 50 guys that would deserve to go in before Halladay.

Name em

Oh my god...

Halladay is going to be inducted in the HOF in his 2nd or 3rd year eligible.

Incidentally, Mussina actually should get in before Halladay, that he's not in baffles me.

No , no. I don’t think Mussina ever dominated the era he played in . Halladay did . Use the “ who would choose if you had one game to win “ . No way would Mussina get the nod over Doc.

Video shows him flying like an asshole. People in the area said he was doing it all week.

Sounds like one of those bikers who does wheelies in traffic then eats it.

Turns out he was flying like an idiot. Video released of him flying up and down and getting as low as a few feet above the water. Unless something was fucked up in the plane that forced him to fly like that...
