Best Pitcher in Baseball?

COULD happen in the coming months. I don't care. It is irrelevant to the question at hand.

I wish a meteorite would land on your head, it would create a bunker that Arnold Palmer could design a golf course around, thats if anyone thought he was famous enough to invest in a course designed by our Arnold.

The guys justs tries to create trouble in any thread he can.
The Arnold Palmer comment is an old joke that you willl find many references to because the all knowledgable RN claims that Arnold Palmer is one of the 3 all time greatest sports men ever.
Obviously more famous than Ali, Pele or Woods according to RN.

I will attempt to incorporate incoming data into my assessment of the Peavy vs. Santana sweepstakes. After all, I fully concede that Santana may pass up Peavy as the 'best pitcher in baseball this year.' So let's see....Peavy got a no decision in his last start. He stays at 7-1, 1.68 ERA. Santana, on the other hand, was beaten like a red-headed stepchild. That drubbing left him at 6-5, 3.30 ERA. Barely above .500. Clearly he is on death's doorstep. But Peavy starts tonight...what twists and turns will this enthralling contest take? Stay tuned.

Strictly based on this year's performance so far, April' 07 to June 6 '07, there are about 20 pitchers in MLB faring better than Santana. But as the saying goes "It's still early" 😉

Not yet he ain't. Getting close though. He's gonna need more than that change-up to be the best.

Haven't had the pleasure of seeing him yet. I miss the days when the Pirates and Phillies were cross state rivals and played each other 15-18 times a year! Have heard a lot of good things about Hamels though

Sabathia...9-1, 3.40

Hamels...8-2, 3.55

Not too shabby. But the ERA is similar to Santana's. The better W-L record indicates that they're merely getting more run support. Still, they're worthy contenders in the race.

Is it pronounced Hamels as in camels, or Hah-mulls?
