I was going to post this when I had the approval to do so. But LOL at everyone reppin the publisher.

Just out of curiousity... I know what the 5 tools of a hitter are... What are the 5 tools of a pitcher?

Stuff, Control, Composure, Strikeout Ability, Fielding.

Stuff, Control, Movement, GB% and Endurance.

:P

Endurance? Not really. GB%? Well that's nice, but no. Movement is essentially K Ability.

Going with Seattle... will explain why later, but dry nails the basics...

Yes.

I want to make a follow up article to this to see how far back I can see this trend in history.

[Puravida]

Not even an honorable mention nod for Kazmir and Shields?

[Puravida]

or Beckett and Dice-K?

[HollywoodLeo]

Dice-K has to post something better than a 4.40 ERA before he can have his name mentioned amongst the likes of those in the poll options.

[BeaNTownSFinesT]

I will say Young and Peavy right now, but easily, if Seattle had run support in a year or two it would easily be Seattle

[HollywoodLeo]

You say that like as though Peavy or Young get any run support.

[Porter]

Beckett and Dice K are formidable but they are not on the level of the above metioned. Kazmir and Shields......Cmon now.

Mariners. If your sole knock is injury worries, well than, that's silly.

Both can K 250. Both can have a WHIP of 1. Both can have 225 IP. Both can have ERAs of 3.

They are also the youngest.

Real silly wasn't it

I hope General will bless us with his presence and write another good article.

Um I wrote that article not General.

[love_that_reefer]

My deepest apologies Porter!! I read it wrong. It says General published it. So sorry but it would be an interesting article to follow up.

I did a second part spanning the 80's thru 2006.

It gets more difficult when you go further back into time. Ill attempt to the 60's and 70's sometime next week. But thats a different era from the live ball era.
