Nolan Ryan

[gohuskresurrected]

Arguably the best pitcher I've seen in my lifetime.

Why you arguing with yourself?

Explain

If you were alive to watch Ryan pitch you were also alive to watch better pitchers like Martinez and Johnson and Seaver and Maddux and Clemens pitch

I did and feel Ryan was better than all of them.

Good for you, it's just sports you can feel whatever you want. It's objectively not correct though.

Ryan was certainly among the best, and his longevity is unmatched, but there were others who were more effective at winning games.

Randy Johnsons win totals would have been better if he Waterton a few bad Mariners teams. Also as stated before, Nolan Ryan was also on some bad teams. Felix Hernandez will never sniff the hall as he was, as you put it "not affective at winning games". The fact is the Mariners stunk for so many of those years.

Not too many........

Winning effectiveness/percentage there were quite a few. He lost almost as many as he won
