maybe feller is out spoken on his talent,because he gets no credit...no one has yet to mention his name and i happen to believe all who post here are quite intelligent in baseball history. feller won 266 games and missed almost 4 years due to ww2. between 1939 & 1948 his w-l totals were 24-9,27-11,25-13,5-3 in 9 games in'45,26-15 & 20-11....he struck out 348 in 1946...he did this when guys tried not to strike out.if you add 80 victories for the years he missed he could have won 350 games.i'm not saying he was the best pitcher ever but he should be in everyone top 10. mine are in progression young matty,alexander,johnson,grove,feller,spahn,gibson, randy jonson and clemens
