EDIT: Agreed - Nolan Ryan should not be mentioned. Great strikeout pitcher, also walked a ton. Reached 300 wins due to longevity as the Ranger's sideshow. Still a great pitcher, but not in my top 10.

I don't see how in the world anyone can include Nolan Ryan. Sure he's the strikeout king, but he's also the king of walks and his peripherals don't blow anybody away.

I'm pleasantly surpised that noone has said Nolan Ryan yet. Usually people talk about him in the discussion of greatest pitcher ever, until you show them his stats.
ON EDIT: Looks like someone DID mention Ryan, and I was beaten to calling him out on it.
Does the president ever attend a Nationals game?
Whether or not Ryan should be on the list, you can't dismiss his win total as a product of longevity. He was a GREAT pitcher, and had he been on some better teams its not unreasonable to say he could have approached 400 wins.What happened to Monte Irvin of BB fame/?

3.Walter Johnson 417 Wins(2nd)
