1B Chris Shelton

quote:

In 2006, Shelton hit nine home runs in the first 13 games of the season; this made him the fastest player in American League history to reach that mark at that point in a season. He also became the fourth player in baseball history to hit at least nine home runs in his team's first 13 games; he trails only Mike Schmidt in 1976, Larry Walker in 1997, and Luis Gonzalez in 2001 in that regard.[3] He earned the American League Player of the Week accolade for April 3, 2006.


He was options down to AAA in July and became a journeyman after that.

Lincecum played for a decade and won 3 Cy Youngs. That is not a flash in the pan.


He won't get in, but 3 Cy Youngs should put you in the HOF. He'd get my vote.
