There are too many variables to answer this question accurately.

Are you speaking about modern day pictchers or all pitchers from all eras?

Are you speaking of starting picthers only or do you want to include relief pitchers, too?

Are you speaking of MLB or are you also including the ***** Leagues.

That said, here are some to consider (and not in any special order):

Nolan "The Ryan Express"Ryan
George Thomas "Tom Terrific" Seaver
Dwight "Doc" Gooden
Steve "Lefty" Carlton
George "the Sultan of Swat" / ?"Bambino" / "Babe" Ruth
Roger "The Rocket" Clements
Bob "Hoot" Gibson
Randy "The Big Unit" Johnson
Pedro Martinez
Grover Cleveland "Old Pete" Alexander
Jay Hannah "Dizzy" Dean
Donald Scott "Big D" Drysdale
Sanford "Sandy" Koufax
Bob "Rapid Robert" Feller
Walter "Big Train" Johnson
Juan "Manito" Marichal
Christopher "Christy" "Big Six" "Matty" Mathewson
Phillip Henry "Knucksie" Niekro
Gaylord Jackson Perry
Denton True "Cy" Young
Greg Maddox
Tom Glavin
John Smoltz

Relievers
Trevor "Trevor Time" Hoffman
Mariano Rivera
Rolland Glen "Rollie" Fingers
Rich "Goose" Gossage
Dennis "The Eck" Eckersley
Lee Smith
Bruce Sutter

There are many other deserving pitchers as well and I cannot come up with the actual top 10.

(in no order):
1. Johan Santana
2. Roy Halladay
3. Roy Oswalt
4. Brandon Webb
5. Jake Peavy
6. "King" Felix Hernandez
7. Mariano Rivera
8. Francisco Rodriguez
9. Josh Beckett
10. Tim Hudson

This is obviously currently, I'm sure Hudson and Beckett will soon be booted from the list, same with MoRiv if he doesn't step it up. Carpenter isn't on the list only cause he's had 1 start, and what a dismal start it was.

Why did everyone forget CAPUANO!?!? Oh, that's right. He's a Brewer, and thus unimportant, in the world of baseball.

And Lackey is the man. They've carried my fantasy teams!
