2026 Contemporary Baseball Era Committee Candidate: Fernando Valenzuela
Beyond his years as a star pitcher, Valenzuela’s cultural impact and role as a global ambassador are worthy of recognition in Cooperstown.

Jim Kaat fWAR 70.9, bWAR 45.2
Paul Derringer fWAR 61.4, bWAR 39
I’m curious which WAR people use when looking at pitchers.

I’m all in on Valenzuela. Murphy & Mattingly I’m meh on but not a def. no. The rest I’m a def. no at the moment.
My predictions.
🔹In this year: Murphy, Valenzuela
🔹Next time around: Mattingly
🔹Never (*): Bonds, Clemens, Delgado, Kent, Sheffield
* Recommending that MLB televise an event where these guys can at least receive "My Dawg" tee shirts from Big Papi.

On this day in 1882, John Preston “Pete” Hill was born in Culpeper, VA. The five-tool player was considered one of the first superstars in black baseball. Here’s an in-progress painting of him with the Chicago Leland Giants in 1907, facing the Cuban Stars of Havana at Logan Park.

I’ve talked about the legend of Steve Dalkowski for many, many years. Mainly to deaf ears, sadly. This might be the best Foolish Baseball vid to date. Watch it.
