postseason record is way short of regular season greatness.

Just get rid of him.... I mean, who would want a 26-year-old with a career ERA under 2.50, two Cy-Youngs (soon to be three) and a potential MVP?

By referencing Manning, I thought it would be clear that I acknowledge his greatness. There has been none better recently.

But man, oh man, that playoff record!

Meanwhile, what say we throw in a buck and guess which day in October Mattingly will be fired.

I didn't catch the game but the stat line doesn't even look that bad. 9 K's 4 hits and 2 walks in 6 innings with 3 earned. Call me crazy but i'll take a pitcher who's got a 13.5 k/9 and a 2.99 bb/9 with a 1 whip. Looking deeper it appears he has a career 9.8 k/9 3.2 bb/9 and 5.20 ERA. Walks are up substantially over his career marks but over 45 IP this seems like a case of poor luck.

Wins are more of a team accomplishment than an individual accomplishment.
