Here's a question: Which MLB Hall of Famer made the fewest all-star teams, while playing exclusively in the All-Star game era? (post-1933).

Bert Blyleven, made just two all star teams after pitching for 22 years and rolling in a 287-250 record.  Never led the league in wins, once led the league in losses in his 10-17 1988 season.  Won 20 games just once, when he went 20-17 in 1973 -- despite having 35 or more starts 11 times.  Led league in shutouts in 1973, 1985 and 1989, with a career ERA of 3.31.  #5 on all time strikeout list.  Went 5-1 in postseason.  Gave up 50 HRs in 1986 and 46 HRs in 1987. Career pitching WAR of 96.1.  Koufax's was 53.1, so I guess Blyleven deserves the Hall of Fame.
