Koosman was a very good pitcher who just happened to get lost in the shadow of Tom Seaver.

KOOSMAn AND MATLACK WERE VERY GOOD PITCHERS WHO HAD VERY VERY ANEMIC OFFENCES BEHIND THEM.

LOOK UP SOME OF THOSE 70'S METS STAT LEADERS, SOME YEARS THE HIGHS WERE 60-70 RBI'S, ETC

THEY WOULDA WON 20 EVERY YEAR WITH CINCY,BALT, PITT, OAK, ETC

LOOK EM UP, I DARE YE
KOOSMAN = LICKING MY VILSACK

I'd be curious to know which top 50 guy is "poor" in the eyes of the other three who voted that way.   et said Pud Galvin.

I considered stopping at Moyer.

Hell, I considered stopping at Neikro, Sutton or Perry.    But that would have been dumb.

I didn't look through the whole list but picked 150.  It's survivor bias - a poor pitcher wouldn't be allowed to pitch enough to get that many wins.  It's the same reason you could just rank them by IP and get a similar list (45 of the top 50 in IP are also in the top 50 in Wins, I didn't look beyond that).  Good pitchers will be allowed to accumulate more.

You only have to get to 8 and Jack Powell for a mediocre pitcher on that list.
