Clemens and Maddux had far better careers and higher peaks. Pedro had a 7 year run better than anyone in baseball history has ever had. Randy Johnson won 5 Cy Young awards and finished 2nd 3 times. Tom Glavine won 2 Cy Youngs and finished in the top 3 6 times.
Halladay's last few seasons have been very good. If he pitches as well over the next 3 or 4 years he will join the above group. Being that he is going to get a steady dose of the Nationals, Marlins and Mets in the NL East it looks good for him.

Best pitching performance Ive ever seen is when pedro went into yankee stadium in september of 99 and pitched a one hitter and the only hit was a home run. No walks, 17k's and faced one over the minimum.
You could take all the perfect games and no hitters and nothing was like that night.
Did anyone else see that game?
