Randy Johnson: The Biggest Winner of Them All?

At 45, Randy Johnson is poised to become the second oldest pitcher in major league history to reach the 300—win plateau. Phil Neikro was the oldest at 46 in 1985 with the New York Yankees.

Randy Johnson's big arm and knack for winning on a consistent basis (over three decades!) makes him one of the most durable pitchers since Warren Spahn or Nolan Ryan!

A winner no matter where he played, Johnson's four consecutive Cy Young Awards is probably the least recognized feat in baseball today.

With four consecutive 300 strikeout seasons, Johnson is poised to reach the 5,000 strikeout plateau sometime in September of 2010.
