Part 3/12:
With 511 career wins, Cy Young's record is a pillar in baseball history, achieved in an era where starting pitchers often completed their games. Young accomplished this feat over 22 seasons, even recording seven seasons with 30 wins. Currently, Justin Verlander leads active pitchers with 262 wins. For Verlander to match Young's record, he'd need to replicate his personal best for an unthinkable 11 consecutive seasons, making this record feel remarkably secure.
