Top Ten MLB Pitchers of All Time

Make Your Own List and Compare

I love talking about this subject because there is always some calculated formula that the so called experts come up with to decide who is #1 and who is #10. Then of course people like you and me get irritated at some of the choices and wonder why other pitching greats never make the list. What do you look for in the best pitcher of all-time? Is it career strikeouts, career wins, career era, world series championships, record in the playoffs. Its so hard to take everything into account and that's why this is an absolute blast! Let the debates begin.

#10 Lefty Grove (1900-1975): Robert Moses "Lefty" Grove started his career in the Baltimore Orioles organization in the minor leagues in 1920 and stayed there through 1924 until Jack Dunn sold him to the Philadelphia Athletics for $100,500 which was the highest amount ever paid for a player at that time. Between 1929-1931 the Athletics won the pennant all three years and the World Series twice in which Grove had a combined record of 79-15 over that span. He won a record of 9 E.R.A. (earned run average titles) over the course of his career and 1 MVP award in 1931. Over his career he recorded a 300-141 record with a 68% winning percentage which is 8th all-time. He finally retired in 1941 and was elected into the Hall of Fame in 1947.
