BlueBandit;3640555 said:As likable as Nolan is / was - he was never a great pitcher, he was .500 a lot of years - he was the definition of a complier , he hung on far too long the man almost lost 300 games, 292 to be exact and all those years only won 324.
A Very good pitcher , great 7 times, a HOF'er yes , but partly do to legend.

Ryan also pitched 18 two-hitters. He took 9 games as no-hitters into the ninth inning before surrendering a hit. He also had a five-hitter on Robin Ventura's face.

Opinons are like rearends, everyone has oneBlueBandit;3640584 said:No hitters quite honestly are becoming a Dime a Dozen, and Nolan hangs his hat on them - great.
However, for all his K's - he NEVER won a Cy young and only pitched 25 innings on the 69' Mets.
He never led his team to a WS he only won 20 games twice on 20 plus years pf pitching .
He's a legendary power pitcher but the near 300L's is a stain on his career.
