I went with Player "C" right now. Close call, but he has the most wins and has eaten the most innings (and it shows
).
The numbers for the top candidates are too close, though, to call anyone a favorite right now.

I went with B.
10 walks? SERIOUSLY? Whip under 1.00? Yeah only 10 wins, but that's not the be-all end-all measuring stick.

Travis, just tell us which one pitches for Boston and be done with it.

His team has won 12 of his last 13 starts too.

I hope not. That will just drive the price up for Player "B" when he signs with the Yankees this winter.

I find it amazing that people here want to reward someone because he has more wins and innings. Sure innings are a good thing to eat up... but the guy has the worst numbers when it comes to ERA, WHIP, BAA of every guy on the list.

I chose B. You can't let yourself get to wrapped up in win totals. Pitchers don't have a lot of control of getting wins and losses. You need to look an their ERA, WHIP, and BB.

Right now I gotta go with "C". Good overall numbers, excellent WL and lots of innings pitched.

10-6 is now 10-8 and done nothing for his new team in the pennant race, even though he probably doesn't have to do anything as it stands today.
