Link didn’t take (that’s what you get when you don’t pony up for the subscription ), but it was your same study, with the entire AL included. Got over 200 names, IIRC.

Mmmmmm are Cito and the Canucks repeating what they did back in 1993? You never know with Doc, AJ, Marcum, Purcey, Litsch etc so forth…..

Now for the Yanks, I don’t believe in curses BUT Steve Sax was symptomatic of the Steinbrenner Syndrome( throw a desired player in the mix and have very little pitching and don’t make the playoffs). Kennedy might be like Karstens, a pitcher that could work better in the NL but not in the AL.

Wow. Jeff Johnson, Sam Militello, Mark Hutton, and Domingo Jean were the ones to do this just before Ian Kennedy did it last season. That’s not exactly a group that went on to have Hall of Fame careers, is it?

Very nice, but at minimum you have to run the numbers for the whole league for this study to mean anything…

Even funnier. If Hughes didn’t pull his hammy, he would be here to so he could also be compared to Domingo Jean.

OH MY GOD! IAN KENNEDY AND DOMINGO F***ING JEAN BOTH HAD SEVEN INNING GAMES EARLY IN THEIR CAREER. THEYING SHOULD TRADE HIM FOR ALAN EMBREE IF THEY CAN CONVINCE BILLY BEANE TO DO THAT!

HOORAY TO PICKING OUT RANDOM STATS!

Seriously, enough with the prospect hating.
