Randy Johnson > Nolan Ryan

Better SO/9innings, way better win%, more Cy Young's, similar wins & era

If you want to go to advanced stats, Johnson kills him in WAR, WAA, and every other adv stat just about


Johnson did it all in less games, less seasons and during the steroid era

quote:

those other pussies would have had their cute little numbers vastly destroyed had they pitched till age 46.


Johnson had more wins than Ryan in his 40s despite one less season and won Cy Young awards age 35,36,37,38, 40

Johnson retired at 45 despite having a winning record every season of his 40s
