                Well, Livan still has a winning record, with 83 wins... And he also leads all MLB pitchers for innings pitched with 1417,1.

                    Final footnote : another ex-Expo leads WL% 2000-05!

                    Here is the "Top 20" list of W-L% for pitchers with at least 80 decisions, covering seasons from 2000 to 2005. Another ex-Expo leads the pack.

                    Code:
                    Name            W-L       PCT
                    Pedro Martinez	90-34	0,726
                    Roger Clemens	94-38	0,712
                    Randy Johnson	103-48	0,682
                    Roy Oswalt	83-39	0,680
                    Tim Hudson	95-46	0,674
                    Andy Pettitte	91-45	0,669
                    David Wells	86-44	0,662
                    Roy Halladay	70-36	0,660
                    Mark Mulder	97-50	0,660
                    Curt Schilling	93-48	0,660
                    Jason Schmidt	75-39	0,658
                    Matt Morris	82-48	0,631
                    Jamie Moyer	87-51	0,630
                    Bartolo Colon	103-61	0,628
                    Barry Zito	86-53	0,619
                    Chris Carpenter	61-38	0,616
                    Mark Buehrle	85-53	0,616
                    Greg Maddux	97-63	0,606

                    Freddy Garcia	82-54	0,603
                    Among pitchers on the mount for at least 400 IPs from 2000 to 2005, Pedro also comes second for ERA (2.58, behind Mariano Rivera's 2.11); first for WHIP (0.96), and sixth for SO/9 Innings (10.35).

                      Livan sure is a bull and IMO he is one of the Top 10 pitchers in all of baseball.

                          That'd be Fernando Tatis.

                              I had done I little while back, my not quite all-star Expos team of the last 20 years or so of the franchise. I'll try to locate it and post it for your reading pleasure.
                              From now until the end of September, I'll be chronicling in real time on Twitter the 1946 season of the International league's Montréal Royals, when Jackie Robinson broke the color barrier in professional baseball. Check it out: https://twitter.com/Royals_46season
