Dedicated to all things Mike Mussina and his enshrinement in Cooperstown
Considering that Mussina retired 8 months ago is it too much to hope that his official website might be updated to reflect this? The site’s rather well designed front page still reads:

There’s been a lot of type on this site devoted to dispelling the notions of 20-win seasons and World Series glory somehow standing in between Mike Mussina and the Hall of Fame. We have instead argued on behalf of Mussina’s durability and consistency. Until this point, it had mostly been hypothetical, abstract, arguments.

Today, we’re going to take an in-depth look at some of Mike Mussina’s lesser know statistics this season–all of these numbers were obtained from ESPN’s Inside Edge reports. You can find them here: http://espn.inside-edge.com
