I'm not sure I understand the comparison to Marichal that's appeared in a couple of posts. Maybe I'm just a sucker for the big year. But Marichal won 20 games in 6 out of 7 seasons, and three of those seasons were 25+ win years. To me, that is dominance. I don't see that with Mussina. But it's also true that you don't need to be dominant to make the Hall (Sutton, Niekro, Ruffing, Pennock, Lyons, not to mention Jesse Haines).
