Seems like some people need a few baseball history lessons.

 

Pitchers are made, not born.

 

Sandy Koufax

 

1955-60

5 years..

 

36-40

 

Sandy Koufax

1961-1966

5 years

 

129-47

 

seasons of 25 (63) 26 (65) and 27 (66) wins in his 7th 9th and 10th seasons.

4 no hitters and a perfect game.

Multiple Cy Youngs..3 in the era when there was 1 Cy Young winner for both leagues.

137 complete games..

On and On And On..

 

Not saying Richards should be compared to the "Left Arm Of God"...but geez, to say any pitcher of Richards caliber is "as good as he will get" at this point in his pitching career is not only comical, it's just plain ignoring baseball history. 

 

Exactly.  Randy Johnson was the same.  Also not trying to put him on that level, but its not like his stuff isn't there.  Its his command and thats something that can and has been figured out before.  His stuff is crazy good.  Thats the part you can't teach.
