This week, a great hitting pitcher...and not just from a golf tee! It's Rick Rhoden! Prior to his golf career Rhoden won 3 silver sluggers, and was a very good pitcher for Dodgers, Pirates, and Yankees. He was top 5 in NL WAR 2x and a 2x all star in his career. Rick Rhoden won 79 games in the 1980s, more than any other Pirates pitcher that decade. He pitched well despite playing for some mediocre to downright bad Pittsburgh teams. He was then sent to the Yankees in a trade that brought future Cy Young winner Doug Drabek to Pittsburgh!
