Pettitte Crosses the Rubicon
Sure, it might only be a symbolic advance, given the rude treatment that Grade 8 lefty starters are given in TBL, but considering where The Big P came from earlier in the year, we'll take it. Steve puts it like this:
With about 7/8 of games played:
Starters: Pretty good, not deep. 90 starts of 8+; 118 starts total: We may get 3-4 more starts each of the big 3.
NAME TEAM Grade starts total
Zambrano ChC 16 -53/22 30 30
Halladay Tor 12 43/22 29 59
Pettitte Hou 8 15/-11 31 90
Williams NYM 3 22/-22 12 102
Ponson StL 2 -22/14 16 118
Relievers: 60 innings of closer, 327 innings of 13+ (including a lefty), 500 innings of 8+ (and they're good 8s), including 2 lefties. Easily the best pre-draft bullpen we've ever had. And it includes some good YOUNG arms.
