That's a record that makes a better case for Lee Smith to be in the Hall than for Eckersley to be there.
the eck had 157+/- wins as a starter before he was converted to closer.
how many starter wins did lee smith have?
As far as a I know, Smith never started. But then that just means he was never a mediocre starter, like Eckersley was. That, to my mind, is a plus for Smith.
