Best Rotation in baseball?

[rhanson187]

Being from ATL I may be a little biased, but is this not wicked top to bottom?

Tim Hudson, John Smoltz, Mike Hampton, Horacio Ramirez, John Thompson.

No break in that order. As long as John's elbow can hold out the season and Horacio's health woes from last year are laid to rest, we are looking at the formula that Shuerholz and Cox used back in the days of the fab five (Smoltz, Glavine, Maddux, Young, and Avery). Screw spring training, lets just start playing ball now!

atlanta USED to have a good rotation. it isn't all that great anymore. last year, if petitte hadn't gotten hurt it was houston, 100%

clemens, oswalt, petitte with lidge as a closer. nobody could touch that. houston's secondary pitching is awful though.


on another note, has atlanta agred to let smoltz start again? i like him as the closer personally. its a guaranteed win.
