    I'd say "probably would have had a very good career as a pitcher" is a safe bet. The 4 years of 1915-1918 when he was pitching full time he was 78-40 (so for 4 years he averaged 19-10 or 20-10 however you want to call it). Then he sorta pitched in 1919 (9-5) and then played another 16 years...

    Sox and Yanks
