Hell yeah Goose

Why the fuck didn't Blyleven get in? I'll never understand it. 287 wins despite pitching for garbage teams, 3.31 lifetime ERA, 1.19 WHIP, 3701 K's (5th all-time), never walked anyone (2.80 SO to walk), 242 CGs, 13th all-time in innings pitched and so forth. No Cy Youngs but that's probably the product of pitching for poor teams. He did get a WS ring. 120.5 on the HOF Monitor (100 or greater = Likely HOFer), plus all of his similar pitchers on Baseball Reference are in except Tommy John and Jim Kaat.
