Hall of Fame Candidate Thread: Tully Crow
Posted: Mon Mar 11, 2019 4:54 pm
Here's the place to talk about the career of:
Tully Crow
Pitcher
Active Career: 2022-2037 (16 seasons)
144-126, 4.02, 2,068 K, 1.21 WHIP, 36.5 WAR
Landis Memorial Winner 2031, 2033
All-Star
Hall of Fame Metrics: (average HoF)
JAWS: 34.7 (70)
Black Ink: 5 (33)
Gray Ink: 65 (160)
HOF Standards: 21 (50)
HOF Monitor: 41 (126)
# At his peak, Tully Crow was a rock-solid top of the rotation kind of pitcher--a lefty who could throw the heater, curve, change combination as well as about anyone. He broke in with Tucson (LBC), lead the league in wins while with Vancouver, and captured the Landis with Jacksonville. He did, however, suffer a collection of injuries that dropped him off that peak fairly early. Seems to me like a Hall of Very Good kind of guy even if he'd stuck the landing of his career, but I'm going to be interested to see if I'm wrong. He may be helped by the limited number of pitchers in this class. Or not.
