Nolan had 1079 K's, 62 W's, and an ERA well under 3.oo in three years in the early 70's :eek: Yeah, Nolan is a much better pitcher in fantasy than in real life.



And to think, the guy NEVER won a Cy Young award. Must have been the lack of wins or ridiculous control problem he had.

Ryne Sandberg (my favorite player of all-time)
