@cslan4 How about Mike Cueller,who won more games in the major leagues than anyone from 1969 to 1975 (140 total wins and only 65 losses,Cy Young winner,world champion,and post season 5 different post seasons with record of 7-4 and hit a grand slam homerun in 1970 ALCS to win game against Minn Twins)?
@MMSMikey I think Aaron hit .362 off every pitcher.. HA. Still makes B. Bonds look pathetic as he was chasing down Hank's HR record. He was quoted saying Koufax was the best he faced.
@mgwilliams1000 its funny you say that. Aaron hit something like .362 lifetime off of Koufax. When Koufax was asked about why Aaron hit him so well he said "he was a good hitter".
@sciontcdude Koufax pitched a straight vertical delivery. It most likley wrecked his arm. However, his curveball was awesome 12 to 6. Even Hank Aaron said it was "un-hittable" and called him the most dominating pitcher he ever faced in the box. Also, The mound was higher then. And, hitting averages in the 60's dropped dramatically. In 1968 only one American league hitter even made a 302 average. I'm not saying Koufax was better, but each decade of baseball was different.
@FrsBigeasy but only for a few years...he had a great stretch for those few years but he dindt have a great career he was a flash in the pan ...i mean look at randy johnson from 99-03 who had a better era and won 4 straight nl cy youngs ...so its great he dominated for 4 years but cant call him hte greatest since alot of guys did nearly what sandy did bout throughout 20 years
1 Sandy Koufax ,2 Warron Spahn, 3 Randy Johnson ,4 Whitey Ford ,5 C C Sabathia In opinion are the best lefts ,there are some more but I can't think of them right now.
@purleses -you've got to be kidding. His original father and his mother were both Jewish. And even if his father wasn't he'd be considered one thru his mother. Sound like an anti-Semitic comment to me.

Sandy Koufax is the best pitcher since Walter Johnson & he was capable of throwing a no hitter every time he took the mound
