For anyone who has ever seen a SOM card for the '68 Bob Gibson, I was wondering how it compares to the Pete Alexander card we have? Basic stats are pretty close. Pete has a SMIDGE better WHIP, but Bob has the lower ERA. I would imagine Bob would have to be an S9*. I'd love to see this card in our game. Have to believe it would give old Pete a run for the #1 desired pitcher.

Gibby's '68 Advanced card:

vs righties:
5.8 singles
3 walks

vs lefties:
1.2 HR
2.8 doubles
12.5 singles
3 walks

...better than Pete vs righties, but not close vs lefties
