Lets Compare Stats:

Wins:

Gaylord: 314
Nolan: 324

Now while Nolan does have 10 more wins lets look at the games started difference.

Nolan: 773
Gaylord: 690

So he started 83 more games and only won 10 more thats crazy!

Now Losses

Gaylord: 265
Nolan: 292

So lets revisit the games started/win/loss differences

Nolan started 83 more games and of those games his win loss was:

10 - 27


Now to the ERA

Gaylord: 3.11
Nolan: 3.19

yes i know Nolan started more so lets look at the WHIP

Gaylord: 1.181
Nolan: 1.247

So Mr. Perry is still better

So we all know that Nolan has his 7 no hitters but how about complete games:

Gaylord: 303
Nolan: 222

So Gaylord Perry is Head & Shoulders above Nolan Ryan

Your Turn
