In 1995, he lead the league in OPS, WAR (for position players), OBP, went 30-30, 2nd in runs….

In 1996, he went 40-40, lead the league in WAR, 2nd in OPS and won a well deserved gold glove.

The problem I have (in my imaginary ballot) is deciding how much I want to weight 1 game.

In two of the four seasons he pitched in the playoffs, he never left a game with his team in the lead.

Meanwhile Curt Schilling is 11-2 with a 2.23 ERA in the postseason, with excellent performances in all 5 seasons he was a part of the playoffs.

Are you seriously telling me there is no difference?

Though I think Raines belongs.

This guy is no different than Schilling.

Give me a playoff pitcher like him any day, guy is a bulldog!
