If you have anyone else in mind besides Roger "The Rocket" Clemens, please explain yourself..!

Of all time? Nolan Ryan or Cy Young. I'd take either of those over Clemens any day.

Nolan Ryan threw 7 no hitters. Throwing one is amazing....2...unheard of. But 7? Amazing.

Cy Young has more wins than any other pitcher will ever come close to. On ESPN they were saying they doubt any other pitcher will have 300 wins. Cy Young has 511 wins.

Those 2 over Clemens any day

Randy Johnson comes to my mind.

No old school pitcher can have my vote not that I think about it trash, for reasons we already discussed...Pitchers these days have it alot harder...But Nolan...Yeah, I could see that one...But Clemens...Man...With run support...He'd have an unheard of record this year...

Nolan gotta take it.....I'd love to vote for Clemens just for the shit he's pulling this year...but in straight numbers...Nolan's got it.

No old school pitcher? Yea...some of the stats seem inflated but 511 wins? That's insane. He'd be an outstanding pitcher even at in these days. 511 wins are insane no matter when you play
