What's even more crazy is that he won those 4 consecutive cy young's and finished 2nd in 2003 at ages 36, 37, 38, and 39. And then in 2003 he was in his 40's and still had a great year Just an insane pitcher

He won 4 consecutive Cy Youngs for Arizona and a World Series. It should have been a no-brainer.
Not really
He still played more seasons in Seattle.
It could go either way, but I'm disappointed he's going in with Arizona (and I like the Dbacks).
8 seasons vs 9.5 seasons is damn near a coin flip.
I actually don't think the Cy Young differential mattered as much as the fact he got a WS with the Dbacks. If he wins one with the M's, he probably goes in wearing the S.
I don't know what the Mariner version of a coog/doog/hook is, but you'd have to be a clueless one of those to think he wasn't going in as a Diamondback.
Well just let me say this about Randy Johnson. Everyone thinks he got his "Big Unit" nickname because he was tall. His wife was the one who originally gave him that nickname, and it kind of stuck to his baseball career. And early in his baseball career, he threw a lot of balls.
He could throw the ball real fast. And when he wasn't throwing the ball fast, the ball would come in slower. Later in his tenure with the Mariners he was consistently throwing strikes. When he wasn't throwing strikes, he was throwing balls.
But who can forget that magical year of 1995? He turned in a gutty performance, yet he did give up the go ahead run. Fortunately for him, as you all know, 'gar (ILTCHT) came through with that double down the left field line, with the iconic image ingrained in our memories of Griffey running the bases hard, something you rarely saw. I personally soiled my Depends. In fact, I had to change my Depends 7 or 8 times that series. Butt plugs don't help.
If it wasn't for Gar, Johnson would have been the loser of game 5. The Safe (ILTCIT) just may not have been built. Howard Shultz would have bought the Mariners, then later sold them to Clay Bennett and maybe the Mariners would be in Oklahoma City right now, Seattle would still have the Sonics, and Howard Shultz and Clay Bennett would be heroes instead of the vile scum of which they have both become.
