World Series reputation

Considering his ERA is above 6 (itself a record for a pitcher who has made this many appearances in the World Series) and he has been winless in all of his outings, would saying he's the worst pitcher in the Fall Classic violate the neutral point of view of the website, or is there enough evidence to make an argument. 2600:1700:370:41C0:B863:664:5ECD:AA34 (talk) 16:56, 30 October 2022 (UTC)Reply

It is not neutral to say he's the "worst pitcher" in World Series history. It's not true, he's an incredible pitcher with a poor record, and I can think of many "worse pitchers" who appeared in the WS in recent years off the top of my head. What would be neutral would be to note that he has a 6.07 ERA, the highest in World Series history among pitchers with 30 WS innings pitched. Considering he is likely to get another start in the WS, it may not be prudent to add that yet, considering the stat will change. – Muboshgu (talk) 17:01, 30 October 2022 (UTC)Reply
