Talk:David Cone, Dwight Gooden, and the Hall of Fame/@comment-101939-20060407163103

I don&quot;t know if Blyleven&quot;s lack of expected wins could be ENTIRELY due to bad luck. When he was active, he always was considered one who pitched just bad enough to lose. Not on purpose, of course, but he just didn&quot;t know how to WIN. Sabermetrics and Bill James have scared away this kind of thinking in recent years, but some pitchers can adjust to the game as it&quot;s being played better than others. Statistics alone will never measure that too well. Having said that, I agree that he still belongs in the Hall.
