Pasta > Peder
Nico is the only one deserving. No way i'm voting for a closer with a near 4.00 ERA.
His ERA is 3.4
Not only were his ratings terrible in his final year in BR (he never should have been signed, @Reel ), he also started four games. That final year is irrelevant to his career stats.
And his career FIP is 3.24 WITH those final year stats. Not going to do the math to figure out what it is without.
good thing everyone gets a vote then, eh?
I just think Niklasson got lucky to be on a Buffalo team that was a Top 2-3 team in the SL for basically his entire career which gave him a ton of save chances. His numbers aren't particularly impressive for a relief pitcher outside of the 500+ saves. That will prolly be enough to get him in at some point whether it be this year, next year or whenever. I'm just not gonna vote for him right now.
dumb argument. you're not voting for him because the team was good? gtfo
I voted for Nico, Pasta, Peder and Merc. No one else is even close to deserving IMO. Peder's save record is still cool to me and may never be broken, so he got my vote.
In hindsight I would rather not have voted for Pasta, but oh well.
Beanpole is 75 behind, but I can see him catching up if someone gives him the opportunity to close. He's still pretty good.
He won't make it.
His ratings are already dropping off. He looks like how Peder looked the off-season before his final year in Buffalo. 'Beanpole' has probably one more year in him, but after next season he will hit the road bump that Peder hit.
The only pitcher in the WBL right now who might reach Niklasson is JARVIS. 'Beanpole' might as well, but I don't think he can go two more years at 38 saves a year.
niklasson lucky that Humphrey's arm fell off.
I take away from Niklasson the fact you didn't trust him to pitch more than 1 inning a game.
Out of curiosity, how many Hall of Famers in the history of sports had to spend the last three years of their career not playing at the highest level of their sport?

In real life, owner-managers don't sign players who can't play anymore.
Tough for me to hate on Frenchy. He spends plenty of time in the minors and seems to take it in stride.Jeff Francoeur still plays
