who would you rather have on an all-time team: tommy john, fergie jenkins, or bob feller?
only one and you have to have one. not tommy john surgery jokes please
Feller 266-162 3.25ERA
John 288-232 3.34ERA
Jenkins 284-226 3.34ERA
When you take into account the fact that Bob Feller missed 3 full seasons and most of 1945 (WWII)…seasons in which he probable would have averaged 25 wins….It’s difficult to calculate what losing those 4 years did to his career but I think it’s safe to say he would have won another 100 games…And if you’re looking for just the single best year neither of the other two had a season like Feller’s 1946 season 26-15 – 2.18ERA – 377.1 innings pitched – So yes I would go with Feller #1 “out of those three”
