I CAN'T LET THIS PASS


OK, while I'm afraid to feed the troll, let's give credit where credit is due: the most remarkable baseball feat under way so far this year is happening in Arizona. Brandon Webb, right now, is the best pitcher in baseball. Not necessarily the guy with the most stuff, or the guy who's going to win the the most games, not a shoo-in to repeat as Cy Young.

But no one's pitching better right now. In fact, it's been nearly 20 years since anyone has had a comparable streak, and that broke the record. Read this.

Webb... a pitcher who once was considered by many (and umm... Hatfield) a man who would just be another average pitcher... one who will not win a CY Award and such... I was the only one to stand by him. I stated that if he incorporated his other pitchers with baseball's best sinker, he would be one of the top pitcher in baseball... and after last year and this year... hmm... I stand correct! GO WEBB! (HEY, read my blog)!
