* Happy trails, Randy Johnson

January 6, 2010

Possibly the last pitcher to win 300 games, Johnson announced his retirement yesterday.

He’s been the subject of several books, but most seem to be for kids or where he’s been included in numerous release about baseball’s  greatest players or for his no-hitters. Perhaps that will change now.

Say what you will about the Bug Unit, at least he (probably) never used steroids.

Baseball-Reference.com had this interesting post this morning about some of Johnson’s accomplishments. You can see his whole record here. And here’s the story from the San Francisco Chronicle.

Finally, who says he doesn’t have a sense of humor?

So long, Randy. See you in Cooperstown in five years.
