What about the fact that Santana will be out till at least June. But don't worry, we got Boof Bosner!

Lee
Hamels
Oswalt
That's a killer rotation. Thanks for playing, NL.
Yeah, that's pretty stupid good. Last 50 years is retarded, but it is certainly the best in the last few years.
Only competition is Braves rotation circa Glavine, Smoltz, Maddux, Neagle? Can you name anything else close to this?
Other than the fact that a lights out Kevin Millwood was also in that 98 Braves staff, your analysis of the Phillies would be right on if it were Oswalt of 5 years ago and Hamels were better than you think he is.
And yes, going back to 1960, I can come up with quite a few. Start with a staff that had Drysdale and Koufax and Osteen and Sutton, or the Orioles staff that had 4 20 game winners - Palmer, Dobson, McNally and Cuellar. Gooden, Fernandez, Aguilera, Ojeda and Darling. There are a few other Dodgers staffs and you could add the staff with Avery, Smoltz, Glavine, Maddux (circa 93). The As had three, with Mulder, Zito and Hudson in their primes, Stewart, Welch, Moore and Vida Blue, Catfish Hunter and Ken Holtzman.
I am sure I could come up with a few more.
Fans of AL East teams are strikingly similar to SEC fans.

I kind of conflated his stupid argument into this thread. Apologies to all.

Zambrano in New York? Jesus that would be fantastic. Inevitably he'll
