Skip Bayless says..

That if his life was on the line for one game, he's taking Cliff Lee.

RealSkipBayless One gm for my life, give me Cliff Lee. Ubaldo: 0-2 in playoffs. Halladay 0 playoff starts. Last yr's playoffs: Lee 4-0, 1.54. Beat NY twice.


Yeah, we don't know what Halladay is capable of in the playoffs, but we know he could beat the AL East. We have no idea how Lincecum would be, but he does have two Cy Youngs. Jimenez is a year older, and a year better. And he's not even mentioning Jon Lester, Carpenter/Wainwright, or Santana.


So, would you take Lee in one game when your life depended on it?

[catman]

If we have to have a pitcher that is currently active, I'd take Pettitte. He is a "big-game" pitcher.
From the past, I'd take Bob Gibson anytime.

Knowing my luck, the options available to me would be Tom Niedenfuer, Donnie Moore, Jonathan Broxton, and assisted suicide.

I'll give you Orlando Hernandez, mofo.

Assisted suicide, please.

Over two months later, dang.

[realmofotalk]

Well, excuse me while I had to sit through 7 games in which either Broxton or Sherrill lost in heartbreaking fashion ever since.

But that's nice that Skip Bayless prefers to live in a world of dreams where he can call upon any pitcher he wants if his life was on the line.

[Kingdom]

I was ready to give you El Duque

[realmofotalk]

I hope like hell that Skip Bayless is right.

Skip is a joke and nothing more. He thought Greinke shouldn't get the Cy Young based on the team's performance
