Guys who came closest in recent years are
Derek Lowe had 176W 86S
Ryan Dempster had 132W 87S
Rivera 82W 605S
No active pitcher has 75 in both. Closest is David Robertson with 68W 179S but he is 37.
We may never see a 100W 100S pitcher again. Only 4 active pitchers are 50W 50S and they are all at least 37. The youngest active guy with 25W 25s is 30.
Only 3 of the 20 active pitchers with 100+ wins have even 1 save. Sale leads with 12
Only 4 of the 17 active pitchers with 100+ saves have ever started a game. Liam Hendricks has 44. Then Raisel Iglesias has 21 and then 2 guys with 1
