C’mon. Morris’s top 4 seasons vs Lolich’s:

Posted on September 2, 2026 at 12:52:41 PM by brick (edited September 2, 2026 at 12:53:03 PM)

Morris (1979, 1986, 1987, 1985): 20.9 bWAR, 127 ERA+, 3.90 FIP, 72-37, 3.32 ERA, 987.2 INN, 1.22 WHIP.

Lolich (1969, 71-73): 25.8 bWAR, 128 ERA+, 3.03 FIP, 3.09 ERA, 82-54, 1,292 INN, 1.16 WHIP.

That’s their best seasons. Lolich is better across the biard. What possible counterargument is there to that?

- Lolich by a lot. I’m not sure that’s even close, you know? - By brick September 2, 2026 at 12:40:08 PM
  - Closer than that. Lolich's '68 series was epic, but Morris was on three WS-winning teams and was an MVP of one as well. He has more wins, but also the highest ERA of any pitcher in the HoF.* - By BigLake September 2, 2026 at 12:43:27 PM

      - I love Lolich but late 60s/early 70s was a pitcher era/poor hitting. 80s was the opposite* - By Rich September 2, 2026 at 12:58:08 PM
        
        Lolich was the better pitcher.* - By MasterBates September 2, 2026 at 01:09:52 PM
        
        1968 was, but shortly after that the leagues lowered the mound - By brick September 2, 2026 at 01:02:34 PM
        
        Check 1972. Very low batting averages in the league. The 80s were much more prolific... - By Rich September 2, 2026 at 01:13:58 PM
        
        Lolich was a better pitcher overall, but it's not as if he was dramatically better. He was not.* - By BigLake September 2, 2026 at 01:35:25 PM
