and nobody can ever say he got robbed.

Nolan Ryan will never happen again because while he struck out everyone he also walked a ton of people. Nolan Ryan today gets pulled in the 4th inning with runners on 1st and 2nd regularly.
Nolan Ryan had a 3.19 ERA across 27 years.

You're right. Teams WOULD pull him in 2024 after 4 innings.

Because he'd be at a pitch count of 70.
And stupid ass teams would put way too much importance on that, even though he probably wouldn't let anybody who walked to score anyway.

It's still :mindblown: to me that Nolan Ryan never won a Cy Young!

Was on some shytty teams and bad luck but he also walk a shyt ton and took a lot of Ls and his ERA was mostly in the 3s most years


Looking at all his seasons someone was always much better than him really no years he was robbed

Albert Pujols won 3 MVP awards.
He lost 3 MVPs to Barry Bonds.

And got robbed of 2 more MVPs by Ryan Howard and Jimmy Rollins.

In another timeline Pujols would have taken down 8 MVPs. That's how dominant he was in the 2000s.

It's interesting to think about how his career may have played out if he stayed in St. Louis.

Bonds has 7 but he should have 9
