Looking at the MLB leaders in ERA, how many in the top 40 are american born black athletes? One. How many in the top 80? Two. Why aren't there more black pitchers? Is it because, like with QB's in football, many are pushed to other positions at a young age? Is it because, this is a little un-PC, but is it because they are more athletic than their white counterparts, and pitching is a position where athleticism isn't as necessary? Whatever the reason, Dontrelle Willis could become something of a Mike Vick of Baseball. When Vick exploded onto the scene at Virginia Tech, it seemingly gave more black high school players the opportunity to play QB in college, and actually pass the ball. I really wish MLB would give Dontrelle more exposure, not only because of his incredible year, but because of the good it would do to the overall health of the sport.
