"If I sense anything from the writers that have always been anti-Jack, they're pointing to the fact that I'd have the highest ERA in the Hall of Fame," Morris told MLB Network Radio. "Let me ask you this: When did we decide that earned-run average was more important than wins?"
He has been eligible for the National Baseball Hall of Fame since 2000 - but has never managed to make the cut.
To be elected to the Hall, a player needs to have his name appear on 75 percent of the ballots cast. Players need at least five percent of the votes to remain on the ballot from year to year. They have 15 years of eligibility, beginning five years after retirement.
Career Highlights
Morris played in 18 big league seasons between 1977 and 1994 - mainly for the Detroit Tigers. He won 254 games throughout his career.
