Congratulations to Tom Glavine. I think this caliber of pitcher will be a rare breed in the future. Your thoughts?

There will be more 300 game winners but it becomes more difficult with the mandatory 5 day rest periods and the caution of managers, gm and owners for the health of the pitcher. Now it is a good year if a pitcher gets 35 starts. There used to be 30 game winners not too many years ago. A pitcher now has to pitch for at least an extra five years more than "old-time" pitchers to get to the 300 win mark. You can definitely count out anyone catching Cy Young's 511 wins or Walter Johnson's 417.

No, i don't think of so, through fact those issues are available cycles. while Nolan Ryan won his 3 hundredth in 1990, ought to you extremely say which you observed Randy Johnson, Maddux, or Glavine and concept they have been possibly to win 3 hundred video games at that factor? Their careers hadn't been popular yet, and that i anticipate an identical approximately present day pitchers. how are you able to assert for beneficial that somebody like Santana, Bedard, Verlander or Kazmir won't get 3 hundred some day? i think of that pitch counts might actually help extra pitchers get to 3 hundred. short term, definite, fewer innings in a season and hence fewer wins. long term, nevertheless, their arm is fit and greater, so as that they actually pitch extra seasons.

no, only because the 23 pitchers eithr pitched or pitched when there was only 4 men in a rotation pitchers also used to go deeper than 6 innings an outing.....unless a guy gets 45+ appearances a season than i doubt it....35 tops isnt guna cut it

its gonna be a while, Randy Johnson has 284 wins but he is 43 years old and injured now so unless he sticks around for a few more years I dont see anyone winning 300 for another 4-8 years

Probably not for a long time. There aren't too many dominate young pitchers coming up with amazing performances.

Plain and simple YES. There are alot of young pitches and I dont care what ESPN says or SI I think that there will be at least 10 more before I die.
