Which Pitcher in Their Prime Would You Take To Win One Game?

[boss415]

Boss, that is true, but to win ONE game, you would choose Dave Stewart? Yikes!

He beat the Rocket 9 times. Do you no how unhittable and dominate the guy was? So yeah big game he could start for me

 

[Enfuego]

At his best? Randy Johnson.

 

[neverbend]

Martinez in 1999

I'm not arguing with you as it is subjective, just surprised no matter what stats you throw at me.

How about 4 20 win seasons in a row?

nah, nothing you can throw at me would convince me to go with Dave Stewart with a gun to my head

orel hershiser. In his absolute prime he set a record for most consecutive innings without a run scored.

 

[wabashwonders]

Sandy Koufax

Interesting, did not think of him either. I recall he has the record, wasn't it like 55 innings or 55 1/3..something like that?

pretty wild people mentioning dave stewart (career 4.00 ERA pitcher) and dennis eckersley (dominant closer, barely .500 starter) but nothing on Roger Clemens ... ??

silly


for 2-3 year guys Fernando and Gooden were as good as it gets but never sustained like Orel or Pedro or Maddux in same era

We were told for 1-game and for guys in this era... I chose Eckersly just for his fast sidearm pitching and his release. Which would be more than enough to win 1 game vs players today, who have never seen anything like that.

If you go back, I said for players to keep for a season, it would be Randy J or Roger C

Koufax easy!!

Probably one of the 20-30 HOFers from the NPB in the 90s

in his prime he only went 20-8 2.99 era, cy young nom and mvp nom

 

[Piantini]

The Big Train, although Pedro and Gibson are also great choices

Wow! You stole mine Willie - Walter Johnson - but for one season who could argue with Bulldog? (Gibson, Koufax, Newcombe, McClain etc. ).....and many more!

 

[slapshot]

Lefty Vida

Right Palmer

Definitely a lot to choose from if you just take their best year
