After TheBig6, is there a clear second best

other than Johnson?

I knew I'd wake you up, old timer !
Post 'em if you got 'em !

Here you go old buddy, You can throw a derby hat over them.

Nice, Im not a fan; but i've got a coupon and a '30 Post. Like the Post best.

Oh wait. The Coupon is a Johnson, like yours ( you fooled me )

what do you mean?, Your not a fan of arguably the greatest baseball pitcher of all time.
How could that be

I know you, you probally like these guys better

I would strongly put Greg Maddux into the top 3. The numbers he put up in his era are astounding. I also believe Walter Johnson is the greatest of all time.

I agree that Matty is "arguably" the greatest pitcher of all time. However, I do note that he won over 60% of his games for a team which was typically winning over 60% of their games - with him or without him.

Johnson for comparison, won 60% of his games for a team which was struggling to be a .500 club, with him.

And I certainly would be hard pressed to choose 19th century pitchers to compete in this league of performance.

Hi all, first post over here so the greatest pitcher ever sounds like a good start!

Welcome Scott,
Let's get together again for a beer real soon

Hey Jerry,

Yes we need to for sure! I see you added another nice T3 to your collection, grats!

Hi Scott,

Welcome to the board. I'll let you know when the Purtell arrives!

Hi Andy,

Thanks, please do.

Scott

I'd probably say Maddux is strong #2 all-time
