Mussina's HOF fate may be more interesting than alot of us think. In major league history, only one pitcher who finished his career with at least 100 more wins than losses, is not in the hall of fame. That is R.L. Caruthers, with a career record of 218-99.

At this point, Mussina is 260-150. If he finishes his career with at least 100 more wins than losses, does that count for anything?

Edited to add:

Mussina is currently 39. Looking at his stats, he could reach both 300 wins and 3,000 strikeouts in two more years. He's closer to the hall of fame than alot of us want to admit.
