Who's the best Pitcher in Baseball?

[AaronP]

who?

 

[Balt]

I don't see my name anywhere on the poll.

 

[DuffmanOhYeah]

Randy Johnson. Without question.

 

[Hamburgerpimp]

Pedro and you know it. Martinez now leads all active starting pitchers in career winning percentage, earned run average, quality-start percentage, strikeout-walk ratio, hits allowed per nine innings, baserunners per nine innings and opponents batting average and slugging percentage.

Andy Pettite

 

[Thrlskr]

Mariano Rivera.

 

[Bluga]

Schilling without a question.

 

[Red Dawn]

Danny Passner

chan ho park he knows how to kick

 

[satori]

Pedro Martinez?!?!? You've got to be kidding me... I mean, in 255 career at bats, he's only hitting 0.098/.140/.125... That's an OPS of .265!!! Man, talk about a crappy hitter!??!?!



Could you imagine what his record the past few years would've been if he'd had the run-support that Clemens and Abbott had? The only knock I can think of for him is his "fragility"... but this past year was the first time he didn't log at least 200 innings since 95, when he had 194... I'm figuring this reputation is partially because he's been the man for the Red Sox... and when he goes down, they suck big time... So, it's more noticable.

Pedro is when he's healthy.

Pedro when he's healthy
Randy Johnson in the NL

but in terms of young guys who will take their place?

Barry Zito in AL
Matt Morris in NL

 

[TapTap]

I voted for RJ, but it hurts because Im a BoSox fan. When Pedro is healthy, it's a tossup.
Best young pitcher--man, Freddy Garcia in Seattle throws gas, but I got to go with C.C. Sabathia in Cleveland.

 

[Rastus]

Sandy Koufax

 

[tydas]

Randy Johnson and Clemens are too old, pedro's injuries are going to catch up to him so the obvious conclusion is Schilling

However Roy Oswalt and Mark Mulder are to up and comings who will be in the top 10 of picthers next year...

 

[jjones]

nolan ryan is my pick for best all time

 

[Cyberian]

<< Danny Passner >>

 

[RabidMongoose]

<< Danny Passner >>



That's the right answer. Did you guys know that when Passner was in second grade, he struck out 2 fifth graders? Their names were Timmy and Joseph. Too bad that he can only play softball now, but he can throw one mean folly floater!

 

[Argo]

Mariano Rivera

 

[RedFox1]

Greg Maddux

As much as it pains me to vote for someone from boston, the answer is definately pedro. Well who knows, with all this bickering he might not be back in boston And as much as I love Rocket, and he definately has had the best career of anybody on that list, he doesn't belong. He is still amazing, but there are much better pitchers out there currently, in fact, he's not even the best on the Yankees. The Moose, should definately be on that list instead of him.

 

[bigrash]

The best pitcher that I've seen pitching in the last few years is Randy Johnson. Mariano Rivera comes pretty close too. Third would be Pedro Martinez
