Repetoire

What pitches did Jack Morris throw while he was with the Jays in the early 90s? I would greatly appreciate the repetoire as well as the velocities and (if possible) the pitch trajectory.-Dylan Bradbury 22:48, 12 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Three rings or four?

The article seems to contradict itself regarding whether he was a 3 or 4 time world series champion. At the top it says he "played on three World Series Championship teams (1984 Tigers, 1991 Minnesota Twins, and 1992 Toronto Blue Jays)" but he also played on the 1993 Toronto Blue Jays albeit not in the World Series. Later it says "He won a fourth ring in 1993, as the Blue Jays repeated as World Champions with a victory over the Philadelphia Phillies in six games. However, Morris was not a factor in the Blue Jays World Series repeat: he pitched poorly for the team in the regular season, finishing 7–12 with a 6.19 ERA, and was not used at all in the postseason due to a season-ending injury." For what its worth the Hall of Fame calls him a four time champion: https://baseballhall.org/hall-of-famers/morris-jack#about Jhirsh39 (talk) 18:57, 14 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The short answer here is, both. He earned a World Series ring for the 1993 season. All of these players who appeared in at least one game for the 1993 Blue Jays got a ring for that championship, even if they weren't on the team any more when the series happened. Members of the front office get rings, too. That kind of inclusion criteria is unwieldy for our purposes, so WP:BASEBALL's consensus has been to limit it to the players on the active roster for the World Series. Discussions can be found in the archives at WT:BASEBALL. – Muboshgu (talk) 22:46, 14 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
