	Is Pud Galvin in your top twenty pitchers of all time? - Baseball Fever
		Galvin is far out of my top 20, and I certainly have heard of him.
		You could be right about Pud being the least impressive 300 game winner among 19th century pitchers, although a good argument could be made for Smiling Mickey Welch.
		Galvin was far far from the best even of his era- he was very consistent and lasted a few extra years (and let's face it, he was better than Mickey Welch anyhow) compared to the rest of the gang, but there's no way he's in the top twenty all-time.
