While were on the subject what do you think (performance wise) makes a pitchers cards more popular in the collecting world? Wins, strikeouts, post season performance?

It seems to me that strikeouts and no hitters matter more than wins in many cases.

I remember when I was a kid, no one was really excited about Nolan Ryan cards. At the time he was a .500 pitcher as wins and losses go. Then he threw, I think 3 no hitters in over a few years and his card poplarity went through the roof. Granted he ended up at or near the top of the list in many statistical categoris, but the no-no's seemd to get him noticed.
