Do a search for pedro's weight and you'll see fluctuations of 160-195. he has always beena little guy in the 160-170 range. I think one year he put on some weight and got up to 180 but he's up to no good if he's anywhere close to 200 lbs on his little frame.
Post one link that shows him below 170 since he came to the Mets. I think you must be looking at his rookie card. Did you see him last night???
I didn't see him last night but I know if he's anywhere even close to 193 he's been up to something. maybe as a Met he was never below 170 but for most of his career he's beemn btw 160-170 but 170 is a far cry from 193.
Junc. I am sending your overtly racial comment to Petrozza, probably Monday when I have more time, and recommending a 6 month banishment.
Gibson's 1968 season was ridiculous, but (based on my earlier point that it was the only season with an ERA below 1.50 in the last 85 years) a little bit flukey. It isn't really accurate to say that he singlehandedly led to the mound being lowered, however - 1968 was the year of the pitcher, not just the year of Gibson. For example, it was also the only year in the last 70 with a 30 game winner, and Carl Yastrzemski was the only .300 hitter in the AL (he hit .301). Gibson was a top-flight pitcher for roughly 10 years, and was among the best in many seasons (but he usually wasn't quite the best in the any one season). He was also a great postseason pitcher. If you ask me, the guy who really doesn't get the credit he deserves is Juan Marichal. He was not the strikeout pitcher other people were, but he won 18 or more games 8 times in a 10 year period (averaging over 20 wins per season during that time), with a .676 winning percentage. He was always very very good, but not quite the best, and was overshadowed by people like Koufax and Gibson.
:lol: :lol: That's racial? The guy has a soul glo haircut, his head is greasy. Unless you have something usefull to add don't bother posting comments.
