Cy Young, Nolan Ryan would be the most likely topics of converasation excluding currents events which would then include johnson, martinez etc.

Roger Clemens is better than Ryan, Johnson, and Martinez.

Clemens is the best pitcher of the modern era. (For those who don't know an insane amount about the game, this was pretty much when teams had like 2 pitchers. Example: Cy Young has over 500 wins, Clemens has slightly over 300 in a longer career.)
Maddux is great, Pedro won't have the longevity, and Johnson bloomed too late. Nolan Ryan was my idol in my formative years, and now Clemens is definitely knocking him off that pedestal. Sure, he'll never match the K's or the no-hitters, but he'll have him in ERA, Wins, and Cy Youngs in a WALK. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
Who is going to be very interesting to watch will be Mark Prior, and Oakland's former Big 3 in Zito, Mulder and Hudson to see if there's any 300 winners in there. If not, with the way the game is evolving we MAY have seen our final one.
