The Average 300 Winner

The Baseball Crank has an excellent chart that averages the last 12 people to win 300 games and where they stood at each year through the pursuit of 300 wins.

I would like to note that according to the chart - Josh Beckett should have 78 wins by the end of his 27-year old season to be on target to reach 300. Currently Beckett has 71 career wins with about 10 more starts remaining for the season.
