Best Pitching Staff

Wins are overrated when evaluating pitchers. :pop:

That's neither here nor there. All I said is he's a .500 pitcher, and over 12 years, a pretty large sample, that's all he's proven to be. Furthermore, he's given no reason to be certain that he's a 15-20 game winner, when he's only won 15 games or more three times in his career, and he never even sniffed 20.

I've seen Vazquez first-hand. He has amazing stuff, and he'll have the complete games, the shutouts and the 13 strikeout games. He'll also have the games where he has no control or where batters tee off on him all game. He was one of the most frustrating pitchers I've ever watched because of it.
 
Rays possible starting 5 for 2010

1. J. Shields Poss 15 to 20 winner

2. J. Jurrjens 10 to 15
3. D. Lowe 10 to 15 or less he has been horrible since he went to the NL
4. T. Hanson 15 to 20
5. T. Hudson poss 10 to 15 if healthy
6. K. Kawakami no idea here.

the bullpen

B. Wagner (CL) will lose more games than he can close for them.
P. Moylan
T. Saito
B. Logan
E. O'Flaherty
M. Acosta
K. Medlen
J. Reyes
J. Parr
L. Valdez
T. Redmond

On paper they both look pretty good the Rays are a young squad with plenty more in the minors . The Braves have some nice pitching but Lowe is on his down side. Hudson is good but how long will he last? Hanson is the Ace imo . Wagner is a bad pickup (Ask Red Sox)

Well you can chalk up another reliever for the Rays, they just acquired Rafael Soriano from the Braves... :lollol::lollol:
