Who Has the Best 1-2 Punch in Baseball?

[wayne1218]

I listed them alphabetically.

I also excluded Arizona & Seattle. Webb has been injured all year and Bedard is injured again. If i left a combo off the list, it is because they were not going to win the most votes anyway.

San Fran hands down! Those 2 cats are out of this world good!

[wayne1218]

If i had to choose, in order .......

1) SF ... Just 2 great arms and long career's ahead.
2) Boston ... Maybe a little biased but i think Postseason performance seperates them from the Yankees.
3) NYY ... Great Left/Right combo. Sabathia hasn't been great in the postseason and Burnett has been known to get injured too.
4) St Louis ... This is a coin flip with #5. Both Harden & Carpenter have had plenty of injury woes. I like Carpenter more right now and i do like Wainwright over Big Z.
5) Chicago ... Read #4
6) Detroit ... Verlander has been a stud this year and Jackson has been one of the best offseason signings in baseball. I can't take them over any of the above duo's though.
7) TB ... I think both guys have great stuff but i'm still waiting for one to step up and be "The Guy".

The End

Maybe i should have asked who was 2nd best!

[kbsooner21]

If I was rating them, based on this season only, I'd go:

1. SF
2. Detroit
3. Boston
4. NYY
5 St. Louis
6. Chi
7. TB

SF--easily--they have taken a SHIT team and have more wins than I ever thought possible---maybe a 1-2-3 punch here--Johnson does have 8 wins--I hate Zito so I won't bring him into the equation--he has been pitching well as of late..dick head!

2nd--another ez one BOSTON
3rd--Spanks
4th Detroit
5th Cardinals

I think it is all comparative here with slight edges through these teams--SF has down an admirable job..damn they even have Sanchez who threw a no hitter--yep against SD--pieces of shit!

[ctt8410]

Out of all 30 teams, here are my top 1-2 punches so far this season:

Giants (Lincecum/Cain)
Tigers (Verlander/Jackson)
Cardinals (Carpenter/Wainwright)
Mariners (Felix/Washburn)
Braves (Vazquez/Jurrjens)


Of the 7 choices:
Giants
Tigers
Cardinals
Red Sox
Yankees
Rays
Cubs

[BearDown]

SF 1, Det 1A. Hard to pick between the too imo, but I give SF a slight edge.

You can't see the results until you vote
