Pitchers of the 1980s are drastically under-represented in the Hall of Fame and not a ton has changed since.īuehrle ended his career 214-160 with a 3.81 ERA (117 ERA+). It's been headed in this direction since the advent of the designated hitter, actually. That's about it, though, right?Īnd with relief specialists becoming more and more prominent in addition to things like the opener, it's easy to see the number of Hall of Fame starting pitchers continue to dwindle.
