i'm a bit biased b/c I grew up watching Maddux pitch for the Braves...but he's one of the best fielding pitchers in history (right there with 3 finger Brown), he's got Cy Youngs, is right up there with the all-time greats in SOs and Wins. it's tough to argue against him! |

Anyone know where any good footage of Walter Johnson, Lefty Grove, etc., pitching in games can be found? Either on line or on dvd's? I have the 'When It Was A Game' dvd's and they're incredible, but they feature players from much later in the 1900's. |

I grew up listening to the radio, with Bob Gibson pitching for the Cardinals. He was dominant. Sandy Koufax was, too. And even though I'm a fan of both... |

To me, a stat that jumps out about Maddux that no one even comes close to on is base on balls. |

Hard to judge pitchers without seeing them in person but here goes my take. |

How about Babe Ruth? Although the body of work was very short, for a 5 year period (1915-1919), have there been five more dominant pitchers in baseball history? Where do you think he would rank all-time if he stuck with pitching or even split his duties 50/50? |

Interesting list and I'm really surprised to see so many people put Nolan Ryan in their top 5. I don't think he's even top 10 myself....but it's good to see Greg Maddux getting some play here...In my opinion Maddux had a 7 year stretch during the "steroid era" that is just flat out unbelievable. From 1992 to 1998 he never had an ERA higher than 2.72 and twice his ERA was under 2. |
