For some reason, 300 wins is a majic number, even though they may be achieved through longevity of being pretty good instead of truly great (Niekro, Sutton, etc.). Ask Blylevin if he would have made it with a few more wins. Moose deserves to enter the HOF, and I feel he pitched very well, and even great, considering the steroid era. He is leaving on top, the way I like players to do it, but I am very afraid that the writers will look for the magic number, not see it, and dump on him.
