I'm re-asking this because I mis wrote it the first time.
What modern era (1901-present) Hall of Fame pitcher had the LEAST number of wins his first 5 seasons?
This does not include pitchers who were primarily relievers.
(Rudy L, you get another guess - it's not Whitey Ford.)

This only refers to players who were inducted into the Hall of Fame as pitchers.

Sandy Koufax is NOT the correct answer.
This is a very hard question, but not a trick question. Hope that helps some.

jeremy is right. The correct answer is Herb Pennock - but he had 17 wins his first 5 seasons (1, 2, 11, 3, 0 - respectively)

Leaving out relievers and ***** League players, it looks like Herb Pennock - he had 22 in his first five seasons (1912-16).
Not too far behind were Sandy Koufax, with 28; Nolan Ryan with 29; Red Ruffing with 30; and Phil Niekro with 31.

he won't get to 3 hundred wins and he won't make the HOF. His era is over 4.00 and no different non-knuckle ball pitcher has pitched usually previous the age of 40 seven. i do no longer see techniques to "easily see him pitching yet another 3 or 4 years". i think of extra probably is him prevailing 10 to 12 this year and in keeping with probability come lower back for an added year. as quickly as his era hits 5.00, the Phillies would be completed with him. he will end someplace around 275 wins and probable won't get better than 20% of the votes for the corridor. he's made one million all famous individual team, in no way led the league in Wins, ok's or era and easily has 2 precise 5 Cy youthful Award finishes. edit: The followers vote the 8 commencing place gamers in. the administrative selections all the pitchers and Moyer became into good sufficient to easily be picked as quickly as. besides, Moyer became into the main suitable pitcher on his team only as quickly as (in keeping with probability two times) in his 24 year occupation.

I have to go with Koufax, 28 is hard to beat.
