Remember the Bird Mark Fidrych won ROY in 1976 and by 1978 he was basically finished after all the hoopla of his rookie season in 76. Of course a couple of injuries did him in.....was JV's excuse?? I think that opening game non decision for him, but loss for the Tigers still has him second guessing himself! |
He was burnt out after one season. Lost all his speed with that injury. Could not adapt after that. If you remember Frank Tanana he had a similiar injury and was able to adapt but not everyone can do that.
