Or Sabathia? But probably Halladay.

Palmer had a string of 20 win season in the 70's. Niekro was .500 or around that mark. Same with Perry. Palmer was on a team that won also, can't say the same with Niekro or Perry.

I thought about Whitey Ford, but he never really put it all into one decade. If I remember, he didn't start winning until what, 1953 and carried that for about 10 or 11 years to maybe 1964. If those numbers would have been in one decade instead spread out, I would see him as a serious contender. The same is true for Ron Guidry.

It's funny that everyone nailed Jack Morris, because that's the first fact cited in his HOF case: "How can you keep out the guy that led all of baseball in wins in the 1980's?". Of course, I just take it on faith, I've never actually looked it up!

Carlton or Seaver then?

I know Carlton and Seaver both had a couple of " off " seasons but Palmer had one also during the 70's. If I had to pick one to win a game for me, I pick Seaver.
