(4,143 posts)1. Jim and Gaylord Perry at only 10 wins behind might be more impressive
They both won a Cy Young.
But yeah, can't even imagine how much money those two pairs would make now commpared to what they made in the 60s and 70s and 80s

Of course, there were 2 of them, but still.
My first guess was the Perry Brothers. At least they're #2 on the list.
