Comments on: Cliff Lee Close to Joining an Elite Club Where it’s Always LIMA TIME! http://theangryt.com/?p=814 Sports Roasts...Served Rare Tue, 09 Feb 2010 21:30:22 -0800 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.4 hourly 1 By: JDM http://theangryt.com/?p=814&cpage=1#comment-13995 JDM Wed, 27 Aug 2008 20:22:54 +0000 http://theangryt.com/?p=814#comment-13995 I didn't think you were allowed to write on the internet and argue that Wins is a justifiable measure of a pitcher's quality. #1 reason why Mr. Lee isn't mentioned among the elites? His ERA last year was 6.29. The pitchers his career has been most similar to up to 28 years old? 1. Darren Oliver 2. Brian Anderson 3. Pete Schourek 4. Adam Eaton 5. Jarrod Washburn 6. Curt Young 7. Rick Helling 8. Roger Pavlik 9. Juan Guzman 10. Jeff D'Amico I doubt even a Blue Jays fan would argue that Juan Guzman should be considered elite. Hell, I doubt Guzman's mother would make that argument. But why am I doing your research for you? http://www.baseball-reference.com/l/leecl02.shtml Lee is having a fantastic year. Let's hope it's his physical peak, and that he's being tested regularly. I didn’t think you were allowed to write on the internet and argue that Wins is a justifiable measure of a pitcher’s quality.
