Ok, heres another underrated 70's pitcher

Played 13 seasons and finished with a 125-126 record. The W-L would have been higher if he wasn't always playing for teams with mediocre offenses.
Amassed a 39.1 career WAR, including one season where it was 9.1. Somehow he didn't get even finish in the top 30 for Cy Young or MVP. (W-L record was much more important to voters then)
Went to one World Series and his team lost.

Did he ever pitch for the Mets?

Need more clues.

Morning Gents! Try this one: This pitcher allowed 999 walks in his long career. However he did not give up a walk in his final 3 games before ending his career. Clue: He is a hall of famer.

Pitcher. Jon Matlack?

Matlack is Correct!

Impossible. The answer can only be determined after searching.
