If you lined up all the pitchers in the game in 1960, the guy who all the coaches and scouts would be drooling over, concerning raw ability and potential, wouldn't be Koufax, Drysdale, Spahn, Gibson, Pierce, Ford, Pascual, or any of those guys. It would've been a fellow named Steve Dalkowski.

You're cherry picking on Johnson. Don't forget 5 Cy Youngs, 3 2nds and a 3rd. Solid pitcher is just a bit of an understatement.
