Beyond the ones I mentioned, Blyleven's wins & winning percentage are also better than Robin Roberts.

The guy was great with both the glove and stick, he didn't have long enough career to pile up the 3000 hits or 500 hr kind of bedrock career stats.
As pointed out above, the odd ending of his career for a year and a half, which was followed with a couple of years of not nearly the same hitting consistency, probably raises some questions.
Sandberg is also a very rare right handed hitter that had a real smooth looking swing.

Somebody asked Molitor/Morissey about that yesterday and this was his answer:
We hate it when ours closers become successful.

But I can't keep the Morissey-baseball puns bottled up due to a technicality like that.
