Goose?

Boom. His numbers as a reliever in the late 70’s and early 80’s are crazy

The year in between he started....had 15 complete games

I thought I'd remembered seeing his numbers and noticing the 17 losses.  Had no idea it was as a starter.  Yikes.

I mean, nobody's over .565, so it's just everyone in the HOF who is alive and over .550 SLG.

So far:

Willie Mays (.557)
Hank Aaron (.555)
Frank Thoms (.555)
Jim Thome (.554)

Missing #1 (obviously) and #6, in case anyone's curious.

Larry Walker and Vlad?

I looked this up and holy shit I never would've guess #1.

Larry Walker and Vlad.  Larry finished his career with a ridiculous .565 slugging, and Vladi had a .553 career slugging.

Yeah, it surprised me too.  Thought it might make for a fun question because of that.

Walker was criminally underrated at the beginning of his journey to the HOF.

Agreed.  I can't fathom why, either.
