His Cy Young seasons were in the 180-190 range

Responses:

I am looking at his stats now. 94 and 95 he was *sick* - Strongbad Aug 2, 09:25 13
- Best pitcher of our lifetime. - David Aug 2, 09:56 1
  - this I agree with you on. - groiny Aug 2, 09:57
- One of the best to ever step on a mound. He was a machine through the 90s. -- nm - Krusty Aug 2, 09:26 10
  - I remember arriving in Atlanta and hearing Braves fans complain about going to games where he was the SP - Strongbad Aug 2, 09:28 7
    - I loved watching him pitch. The circle change he put on the outside corner to righties was devastating. - Krusty Aug 2, 09:32 6
      - He also had that inside cutter that would curve into a strike. It was majestic and unhittable. -- nm - David Aug 2, 09:57 3
        
        I can picture that pitch in my mind right now. -- nm - Jelly Aug 2, 10:21
        
        Yup. Like Groiny said, it was art. - Krusty Aug 2, 10:07
        
        except that one he threw Will Clark when he was on the Cubs in the playoffs. nm -- nm - groiny Aug 2, 09:58
      - yeah, watching him pitch was like art. nm -- nm - groiny Aug 2, 09:32 1
        
        Very much so. -- nm - Krusty Aug 2, 10:07
  - I would say, given the speed of his pitches, he did more with less than anyone ever. nm -- nm - groiny Aug 2, 09:28 1
    - Possibly. It was sinkers and changeups with the fastball on occasion. -- nm - Krusty Aug 2, 09:34
