Baseball: Best 4 man rotation in 05

There are a lot of teams with good 1-2-3 starters, but who has the best 1-2-3-4?

A's - Zito, Harden, Haren, Blanton

Why they will win it all if they get to the playoffs

If only the Braves could stayhealthy... we'd have an awesome rotation. We have Mike Hampton, Tim Hudson, John Smoltz, and Jorge Sosa.

Smoltz hasalways pitched good, but has had no run support wen he pitches. Sosa is 11-3 for us, so I have no complaints there. Tim Hudson has just had a down season, he is only 12-8... but he has pitched some very good games this year. Mike Hampton has been injured almost the whole season, so he has not been able to be very effective with the Braves. Along with Hampton being one of our best pitchers... he is definately one of the best hitting pitchers in the league.

I like the A's rotation....Well no I don't after last night against Cleveland.

The Braves Had a very solid rotation to start the year but injuries suck

I like St.Louis and there rotation

- Carpenter
- Mulder
- Suppan
- Morris

Also, Florida is pretty nasty

Willis
Beckett
Burnett
Moehler

Chicago White Sox's are probably the best

Garland
Buehrle
Garcia
Contreras


My personal favorite is the Tribe

Sabathia
Millwood
Westbrook
Lee

The answer?

My fantasy team here -

Clemons, Willis, Mulder, Jae Seo

how did you get so many posts

by being here a long time

indians have a good rotation, and the a's do too

the a's are the best by far

yes, but indians are a close 2nd, they got the era leader on their team and cliff lee

the a's staff- zito, haren, harden, blanton = atleast 10 wins saarloos = 9wins
bullpen- rincon, duchsherer, street

indians still have best pen, and they have millwood, sabathia, westbrook, and lee

whats good about their pen

So much for that... right after I posted this, I heard Hampton needed Arm Surgery. Then I heard he needed elbow surgery. Now I hear he needs Tommy John surgery, and won't be ready until the 2007 season. Atlanta needs to trade him, or trade a position player to get a goo pitcher. Langerhans and Hollandsworth might get them a decent pitcher.... maybe even LaRoche.
