The Greatest Stu in MLB History

We like Stus around here. They’re kind of our thing. Stuarts are included. Stews and Stewarts are not. We don’t like Stews and Stewarts. We don’t hate them, but we don’t like them.

Anyway, looked up the best Stu in MLB history today. Stu Miller. 27.1 career bWAR. Came up with the Cardinals in 1952, shut out the Cubs in his debut (Hal Rice, batting after Stan Musial and Enos Slaughter, drove in Red Schoendienst in the top of the first to score the game’s only run), was nicknamed The Butterfly Man because of his slow curveball, was an All-Star in both 1961 All-Star Games (I’m curious too, but this is a matter for another post), won a World Series in 1966 with the Orioles (did not make an appearance, though), was part of a combined no-hitter with the Orioles in 1967 (got one out after Steve Barber went eight and two-thirds, the Orioles lost the game), led the NL in ERA in 1958 with the Giants…just a good, solid career. Represented the Stu population well. Look forward to having a glass of milk with him in the afterlife.
