I'd have him in my top 10 for sure. Maybe even top 5. Getting it done in the post season gets him some extra points in my book.

He is top 5 in my book. His A game might be higher then anyone else's. There would def. be an argument for that.

1 bird hit by pitch and exploded

That alone gets him the nod in any tie-breaker situation.

I'd have him in the top 5, but I really am not great with the all time greats in baseball.

I remember watching baseball tonight like 8-9 years ago and youd see Johnson's line. 8 IP, 13 K's, 2 BB's, 1 run. It seemed like it was that every damn time he pitched
