That's why I said it as a question. I'm not saying Kent is the best ever, but it's arguable. With the media East Coast bias I think Kent was usually overlooked, or shrugged off as having a few years better than he should be. If he played for the Yankees his whole career he would be in the talks for best ever, although his personality would have hurt him in New York. He's no Jeter. But since he spent most of his career in the west, he was commonly overlook during the first half of his career, at least.

And sorry if Yankee fans feel like this thread has been hijacked. But we are all baseball fans and talking about stuff like this is what makes the sport great. I hope you agree
