Ehh, they are all reasonable, but I can't see why you'd take Appier over him. You can make a reasonable argument either way.

I don't see why Cone is better, and Ontiveros had 115 innings 4.4 SO per. Again, I can see a reasonable argument for Johnson and Sabs, though. It would be reasonable to say any of those 6 (or maybe 7) guys -- or, really, it would be reasonable to say any of the 4 (or maybe 5) after Clemens and Maddux.

Wakes had fewer SO and more BB. I can see someone claiming Nomo was better, tho. Again, it is reasonable to put Moose in this bunch.
