Default The All Century Team - A Retrospective

Posted By: steve

I did not say "best" pitcher. I said most dramatic and most dominant pitcher - aka what most fans want to see. Besides his no-no's, what other contemporary pitcher stacks up to the prices of Ryan's cards ? None. Furthermore, the Cy Young award is biased to pitchers on winning teams - 1973 Ryan won over 20 games for the lowly Angels, Topped Koufax' single season strikeout record, AND had not one but 2 no-no's..........still didn't get the Cy Young....Palmer did for Baltimore.......MOST amazing overlook in sports history!!!
