This thread is a non starter since Nolan Ryan isn't the best pitcher of the modern era to begin with

I do think its cool that the Mets had him on the team with Seaver and Koosman and didn't let him do much because he had no control yet.

Kind of the opposite of Gossage, who struggled with control as a starter with the Chi White Sox and found himself after he jumped to another team where he became a reliever.
