#1 - Tue Jun 2, 2009 2:06 PM EDTUh... Look at that top 5. No rings. Josh Beckett: 2 Rings. Two different teams. Top 5. Lincecum, Beckett, Halladay, Sabbathia, then Maybe MAYBE Grienke.
#3 - Tue Aug 4, 2009 5:52 PM EDTSabbathia and Santana? What is this a NY poll? Not this year for either one. Santana is now hittable and Sabbathia is just one more slice of pizza away from being too big to throw strikes. Beckett better this year than either one.
#4 - Mon Aug 17, 2009 3:10 PM EDTMight want to check the numbers out first before saying that. Blister Beckett has been inconsistant his entire career, one really good season, one not so good. Sabathia has the better numbers than "home run" beckett does so stop being blinded by hatred because you are a redsuk fan and look at the numbers. They dont lie
AT the risk of exposing myself as a die hard Cardinals fan, I would have to include at least Chris Carpenter, among the leaders in ERA and 14-3, a ridiculous winning percentage, if not also Adam Wainwright leading the NL in wins and an ERA under 3. I wouldn't want to see those two twice each in a postseason series if I were another team.
