@jonallendc please. 3.90 era in a low-scoring era. no statistical argument for him. one game 7 does not a HoF career make

@reidepstein You are forgetting the '84 WS. Morris dominated two WS, and no P who wasn't on drugs held a candle in the '80s. -
@jonallendc so three big games gets you into the HoF? not how it works. guy was good not great. dave steib with WS rings. -
@reidepstein Four very big games, to be exact. And Steib's no slouch, either. Name a better pitcher than Morris for that decade. Fearsome. -
@jonallendc because hes good in years that begin with 8? how about best from 86-95? or 72-82? or 97-06? why is 80-89 more impt? -
@reidepstein some of his best years were in the early '90s. My point is that he was the dominant guy for a decade. High heat and a forkball. -
@jonallendc show me a year in which stats show he was dominant. never had an era below 3. never had k/9 above 7.5. youre imagining things -
@reidepstein I watched him dominate AL East hitters 4 years.#s are useful, not everything. Bill James argued Ripken+Wallach projected same. - 1 more reply

@jonallendc Jon, but he was only third for Cy Young twice, never closer, career ERA near 4. Not HOF#s. Same goes for Schilling. -
@mark_greenbaum Whole more than sum of parts. He won games.@fivethirtyeight would say I'm nuts, but he was the dominant clean P of his era.
