If Pedro Martinez's numbers are backed out, the Sox ERA rises to 4.67. That still would have ranked fourth in the AL. And it would have been good enough to beat the world champion Yankees' 4.76 ERA."the sox did not lose any key pitchers this off season. the yanks picked up mussina. pedro, wakefield, pettite and hernandez will pitch as well (or better) than ever (while clemmens and a few others on both teams will not). it should be very interesting.the sox out-pitched the yanks last year. they did not lose anyone key on the pitching roster. the yanks picked up a great free agent w mussina, it looks like we might have an even match up.i just dont understand where you guys get the idea that yanks pitching lords over the AL. the yanks pitchers did not come out on top of the stats last year. they *were* key to the playoff victories and that was very important to last years championship. this year, however, i think the yanks need to worry about losing the pennant to the red sox and not even getting a chance to step it up in the playoffs. the addition of mussina merely brings the yanks *up* to the sox level of pitching.------------------i love music!

sirdante Posted December 18 Author Report Share Posted December 18 alright. now i am *completely* confused.yanks fans talk about hitting all of the time. i talk about the hard hitting core of the red sox slugging.yanks fans want to talk pitching. we talk pitching, pointing out last years best ERA in the AL.yanks fans want to talk pitching without pedro (which is really a stupid hypothetical-- we *do* have pedro). i talk pitching without pedro.yanks fans want to talk about wins. i talk wins when i mention that we were a mere 2 1/2 games out of first place last season.what do you want? i am talking about baseball right now. by now, i think we all see how important the free-agent dealing in december is to the season. its as much a part of the 2001 season as next fall's home stretch.lets be honest. its nice to assume unchallenged dominance of your home team. however, face the hard evidence to the contrary: the red sox are the #1 contender for the pennant and, therefore, the championship. thats good for sox fans. its good for yanks fans. its good for baseball fans.this season has all of the elements of a great drama in the making. youve got an overconfident world champion, an underestimated contender, and a rivalry older than the long running, soon to end, "curse."------------------i love music!

They always do that when they know it's hopeless, you know. no. "best ERA" implies that our pitching does not "suck," does "compare," is not "nothing" without pedro, etc. i brought it up only to address the comments by yanks fans who seem to be under the impression that red sox are a poor pitching team when compared to the yanks. its fine to say the yanks pitchers rule, but its simply not true.------------------i love music!

Do admit Yankee fans fail to state that though, statistically, it is a 'push' between the staff's, but, going head to head in pressure packed 'playoff situations' there is, in fact, NO DEBATE. Proven 4 out of 5 times, recently. In fact, Pedro no longer enjoy the 'automatic game 1 victor' status against Yanks. Slowly, Yank hitters chip at Pedro's dominance. Take it one step further. Braves are generally acknowledged as best pitching 'STAFF' in majors last 10 years, best ERA, wins, Cy Youngs, yada, yada, yada. Head to head, again, NO DEBATE. 0-2 versus Yanks in W.S. Nuff said. Bottom line? Take playoff moxie over best ERA, anyday. ------------------Sticks and Stones may break my bones..but..words..can't..hurt..meeeee...so there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't count out the Sox until it's all over. Although they haven't won the World Series since 1918, they have consistently been in the race.Until its all over? It was over in October! Yankees rule and Red Sox are nothing but constant runners up...AND Nomar is a Jeter wanna be....only not as dreamy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
