Jim Gott Stats

Jim Gott was born on Monday, August 3, 1959, in Hollywood, California. Gott was 22 years old when he broke into the big leagues on April 9, 1982, with the Toronto Blue Jays. His biographical data, year-by-year hitting stats, fielding stats, pitching stats (where applicable), career totals, uniform numbers, salary data and miscellaneous items-of-interest are presented by Baseball Almanac on this comprehensive Jim Gott baseball stats page.
"He (Jim Gott) probably has the best raw stuff on the staff. After Rich Gossage and maybe Juan Berenguer, he probably throws as hard as any righthander in the league, and when he gets his slider over, he's virtually unhittable." - Toronto Blue Jays Manager Bobby Cox in The Sporting News (June 13, 1983)
