Episode Details

Jim is joined by Brandon Warne, host of Locked on Twins, to break down the HOF candidacy of former MLB pitcher Johan Santana. First, Brandon and Jim cover the best pitchers in Minnesota Twins history (11:03). Next, they discuss Johan's ridiculous second half of 2004 (13-0, 1.21 ERA), his no-hitter with the New York Mets in 2012, and how his peak actually compares to Sandy Koufax (15:25). Finally, Brandon and Jim debate how big of a deal Johan's low career win total (139) actually is (40:45), before making a final call on whether Johan belongs in the Baseball Hall of Fame (49:05).
