Frost seems to have flamed out following the 1979 season. Anybody know what happened??

[quote="kenhutchings" ]Frost seems to have flamed out following the 1979 season. Anybody know what happened?? [/quote]

I remember him as part of the deal that brought Bobby Bonds to my beloved White Sox. From Wikipedia:

Frost had his biggest year in 1979. He won 16, lost 10, and led Angel starters in ERA (3.57), winning percentage (.615), and innings pitched (2391⁄3). California had an impressive group of starters that year, including Frost, Nolan Ryan, Don Aase, Jim Barr, Chris Knapp, and Frank Tanana. They ultimately won the American League West Division pennant that year with an 88–74 record.

Unfortunately, elbow problems severely limited Frost's effectiveness the remainder of his career. In the next three seasons (two with the Angels and one with the Kansas City Royals) he was a combined 11–22 with a 5.43 ERA.

Career totals for 99 games pitched include a 33-37 record, 84 games started, 16 complete games, 3 shutouts, 1 save, and 7 games finished. He allowed 251 earned runs in 5502⁄3 innings pitched, giving him a lifetime ERA of 4.10.

Career highlights include:

A four-hit, no walk complete game shutout vs. the Oakland A's (July 3, 1979)
An eight-strikeout, no walk complete game win (10–1) vs. the Baltimore Orioles (July 7, 1979)
A ten-inning, four-hit complete game win (2–1) vs. the Minnesota Twins (April 16, 1980)
Held All-Stars Sal Bando, Buddy Bell, Mike Hargrove, Rickey Henderson, Roy Howell, Pat Kelly, Hal McRae, Willie Randolph, Jim Rice, and Roy Smalley to a .103 collective batting average (15-for-145)
Held Hall of Famers Reggie Jackson, Cal Ripken, Jr., and Robin Yount to a .167 collective batting average (3-for-18)
Threw the opening pitch at a Los Angeles Angels game on Monday, June 27, 2011.

It is not for a lack of good players at CF. Andre Dawson is still available.
