Not only did Seaver have a monster strike-shortened season (14-2, 2.54 ERA for the Reds, who had the best record in baseball)—afterwards, he did pretty good color commentary during the playoffs (partnering with Dick Enberg).https://twitter.com/Wildcatvxa/status/1301331446808809472 …

Maybe I’m just still bitter on Seaver’s behalf

Definitely be bitter about the playoffs!

Fernando and Tim Lincecum had similar career arcs - extremely dominant for several years but not physically built to sustain it over the long-term.

Still mad the Angels wouldn't pay up for Nolan. Artie continues fine tradition of not paying for pitching with Angels. Fernando's screwball was unhittable that year.

I started collecting baseball cards in 1981. The Dodgers had a "future stars" card w/ Fernando and Scioscia I think? In 1982, there was Topps card for his ridiculous rookie season--maybe 10 shutouts? I was a Pirates fan (Madlock, Parker, Pena, Moreno!) but I loved Fernando.
