BONUS Whose Line Is It Anyway: July 22, 2011

Some combination of life and flakiness lead to 2 weeks with no Whose Line game on our blog.  For that we are terribly sorry, and offer this bonus installment as penance.

This player had a 13 year career, spending time with 8 different big league teams.  10 seasons were with National League clubs, and 4 were in the American League (so there was some overlap in there where he was on more than 1 franchise in at least 1 season).  Those seasons fall somewhere between 1970 and 2000.  So ... whose line is this? (click to view larger image)

Hints:  

• He was an All Star just 2 times
• He won only 1 Silver Slugger award, and 0 Gold Gloves
• At one time, Baseball Digest called him the "Most Intimidating" hitter in all of baseball

In some ways, this one is the trickiest and most obscure player we have featured in this game.  In other ways, he's the most topical.  In an obscure way.  This pitcher spent his entire 13 year career with the same team.  In fact, let's specify that it was a Canadian team.  That might help.  Those 13 seasons were somewhere between 1970 and 2000.  So ... whose line is this? (click to view larger image)

Hints: 

• He was an All Star 5 times
• He finished in the top 5 in Cy Young Award voting 3 times
• It's something like ironic that a player with this name played for a team in Canada
