[tjwettem]

Maddux to Smoltz

[Black White Sox Hat]

It's crazy that they only won one World Series.

They got that work from that Rijo/Dibble combo


Maddux/Smoltz/Glavine and Wohlers slept on

To be fair, if I didn't see Pujols & Trout do the Fernando Rodney arrow taunt this morning on ESPN, I wouldn't know what was going on either

 

[Lucky_Lefty]

Stewart and Eckersley have to be up there. It's crazy that they only won one World Series. They had some bad ass dudes on their team

I will always have hate for that 90s Reds squad. fukkin Rijo, Dibble and Sabo

 

[Thizzlam]

Maddux to Rocker shouldn't be ignored (despite Rocker's ignorance.)

 

[Da_Eggman]

Catfish Hunter and Rollie Fingers

Thank you very much for playing kind sirs but this thread is over

 

[I.V.]

If you have to specify a year, then nope. They're trash now anyways.

Of course you have to specify a year. How else would you compare? Feel? Smell?

 

[Hahahaha]

One season or career?

Pedro/Foulke

And I'm tossing in Kevin Brown/Eric Gagne cause Gagne was arguably the most dominant closer of all time

 

[Miggs]

Jack Morris/Tom Henke

 

[GunRanger]

That Clemens/Rivera combo

Only '01 is a great combo in terms of being historical

 

[mvp_status]

Oswalt/Lidge before Pujols sent Lidge's soul into orbit

 

[King Poetic]

1990 Oakland A's even tho they got swept in the world series

Dave stewart was 22-11 with a 2.56 era with i think 180 strikeouts

and Eck had 48 saves

 

[BlackAchilles]

90's Braves might have been the GOAT pitching staff, doin' work in an era when even the most sluggers were hitting 30+ homers in a season.
