http://msn.foxsports.com/mlb/story/8...-20-win-season

Not entirely unexpected.. Pretty decent career I must say.

Well luckily for him, baseball players careers aren't judged to heavily on their personalities..what would the history of baseball be without the ego's of Ruth, Cobb and others.

Re: So long, Mussina

I think this was pretty much expected.

Thanks for everything Moose!

Hall of Famer. Sorry he didn't get his ring but he was good for us. Best free agent signing of this millennium for the Yankees.

Re: So long, Mussina

An extremely good career. I don't know if i'd say Hall of Famer (i'll need to look at his numbers in depth) but he was a very steady guy for so long. One of the best pitchers of his generation though that's for sure.

Re: So long, Mussina

21 pitchers active and retired have a career record of 100 games over .500. Moose is 117 games over .500 for his career. He's in pretty exclusive territory.

Personalities no, but character yes...And you could spin off all of Mussina's transgressions as being a bad character guy.
