Well then how about Santana, who had a lower ERA and more wins than Mark over the past three years?  Then would you consider him better?

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

If you insist. (You're the genius here, not me.)

Mark Mulder is a great pitcher, I'd love to have him on my team.

 

Statistically he's better, so I guess in your book, Mulder's better.

 

There are intangibles that need to be considered that don't necessarily show up on stat sheets. MB is a great defensive pitcher. He's a leader, a great clubhouse guy, and a "stopper".

WTF, Mulder has more wins over the past 5 years than Buehrle and is a damn good stopper, I've never heard a bad thing about him clubhouse wise and he's even started the all star game.

 

In your world Mulder >>> Buehrle.

CAREER playoff stats!!!

Who would you rather, Willie Harris or Barry Bonds?

 

Timo Perez or Barry Bonds?

We cannot make an assumption on Santana either way, because we have yet to see him pitch in a playoff.

 

1 start 1 Win 1.29 ERA 7 IP 3 hits 1 ER on a solo hr oh and 9 k's

 

????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

If you insist. (You're the genius here, not me.)

 

There it is again. You always have to bring this up in your arguments.

Hmm, So how does that make him better than Smoltz, Clemens, Santana, Peavy, etc...

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

It doesn't.

 

Admittedly I don't watch NL baseball, I don't like it. I think it's inferior.

Do you watch any baseball outside of White Sox baseball?

Who would you rather, Willie Harris or Barry Bonds?

 

Timo Perez or Barry Bonds?

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Based on Bond's playoff career, if the game is on the line and there is 2 outs and I need a hit, I do NOT want Barry Bonds at bat.

(You're the genius here, not me.)

 

 

i know

It doesn't.

Then why are you making all these crazy claims?

That doesn't answer the question.

Willie Harris or Bonds? Timo Perez or Bonds?

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

I will watch any AL baseball game when they are on tv, unless they're on at the same time as the Sox.

Steve,

 

Are you just ignoring the fact that Santana not only plays in the AL, but has more wins, a better ERA? Oh and you are just ignoring that has HAS pitched in the playoffs and dominated.

It doesn't.

 

Admittedly I don't watch NL baseball, I don't like it. I think it's inferior.

 

 

Why, because they don't use the DH? I like the NL game

If you insist. (You're the genius here, not me.)

No, you are the (fake) attorney.

Jesus, I think RNW would have presented a more sensible argument than this guy.

Then why are you making all these crazy claims?

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

What claims? That I think MB is an "ace", that I THINK he's as good as anyone in the league?

No, you are the (fake) attorney.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

You've already "pussed-out" on that bet...don't make me embarass you!

Based on the last 5 seasons!

 

BTW, if that's the case, how could you say Peavy, Halliday, Santana, Prior, Zambrano are even as good as Buehrle? They have had 1, maybe 2 good years each.

This claim.

Based on Bond's playoff career, if the game is on the line and there is 2 outs and I need a hit, I do NOT want Barry Bonds at bat.

That doesn't answer the question.

Willie Harris or Bonds? Timo Perez or Bonds?

You've already "pussed-out" on that bet...don't make me embarass you!

You mean when I said I agreed to the bet. Nothing could possibly be as embarrassing as being you.

How about arguing with him for 6+ pages?

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

It would be more embarassing WHEN you are handing me $1,000.00.

 

How/when do you want me to prove you wrong (again)?

True...but WINS are THE most important stat.

 

I'd rather have a 20 game winner with a 4.00 era than a 13 game winner with a 3.00 era.

This is the greatest claim EVER.
