The link is right but the name is wrong. Al not Bob. Also Al was traded in a complicated four team trade before the We Are Family year.
As you say, he got better with age. He had his best years late 20s on rather than with the Pirates. It would be nice to be able to keep him for those years. It's hard for me to do playing historical rookies. You may have less of a problem with your setup.
