What I quoted represented a contradiction: the summary said he's a loser but the detailed comments said he was great. That was my only point. The time period is relevant because of the sort of extreme ratings given players in this era to generate 1870s sort of stats. For instance, in the modern era of baseball a pitcher who allows almost no HRs in a season would be amazing; in the 1870s he would be just another guy.
