Mel Queen Stats

Mel Queen was born on Thursday, March 26, 1942, in Johnson City, New York. Queen was 22 years old when he broke into the big leagues on April 13, 1964, with the Cincinnati Reds. 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 Mel Queen baseball stats page.
"Years ago when I pitched they didn't care how many pitches you threw as long as you could win the game, but on the other hand they didn't have a whole lot of money invested in you and they didn't want to see you get hurt but if you did get hurt they had somebody else to replace you. Now if you have a Halladay or a CC Sabathia you have a lot of money invested in that particular pitcher you do not want to see him get hurt by fatiguing him and a lot of times that's how you hurt yourself by fatigue. When you ask muscles to do something they are too tired to do you get hurt so I can see them being cautious with the pitchers." - Mel Queen in the Batter's Box Interactive Magazine (Gerry McDonald, 'A Few Words With Mel Queen', 06/02/2009, Source)
