You mention Drysdale in your list of non hall of fame stats who are HOF'ers....
here is a statistical look at Don and another pitcher; see if you can guess who it is.

$5.00 to the paypal account of the first person who can identify the mystery man whose comparison to Drysdale is proof that Don shouldn't be in the HOF or this other player should be!

For reference don started 465 games won 209 lost 166 with 2486 k's
mystery man started 473 games won 209 lost 161 with 2175 k's
I'll need an answer within 24 hrs(930 pm PST) to award the prize.
Good Luck
