I know Cy Young doesn't really need to be defended, but lets give him a little more consideration for top five pitchers ever.

Cy Young Wins: 511 in 22 years
Johnson Wins: 417 in 21 years
Matty Wins: 373 in 17 years

All three dominated in slightly different eras.

It's so hard to compare pitchers like Clemens to Cy Young though.
Young had 749 Complete Games. That only tells me that the game was completely different.
