Since today is the date in 1984 that the Houston Astros formally released J.R.
The Astros had a wicked rotation in 1980. Ryan and JR throwing heat with Joe Niekro throwing butterflies in between. Talk about slump-inducing. Had JR stayed healthy, my Phillies probably do not escape that LCS and finally win a World Series.
It was so cool watching JR Richard pitch. At times, he was more powerful than his contemporary Nolan Ryan.
