No he wasn't he just pitched in the post season more than anybody. ERA 3.81 WHIP 1.305 not very good numbers but when you are pitching for those Yankees teams it was good enough to win 19 games.
That's in 27.6 IP.....no, wait, that's in 276 IP LMAO. That's a full season worth of starting pitching against the very best teams at home and on the road in pressure playoff games. 19-11 with a sub 4 ERA is fantastic for nearly 300 innings when you can't pad your stats against the Twins and Rays lol

HAHAHAHAA, no it's not fantastic. Funny you used the Twins as they spent a lot more time in the playoffs during Pettitte's career than the Rangers did, lol

@blstoker whoops....I was premature. I thought I took him but it was my plan. I hope you don't trade up to get him now :laugh3:

No worries there, I rarely trade, but you had me scouring the picks to see where I missed it.

Well, you don't want any grief for your Vikings or TWolves, I gotta have at least one team to bust your balls

Pettitte had many playoff runs where he was dominant on Championship teams. The ERA would only be solid if it were 35-40 innings, but he threw nearly 300, which drives up his ERA. It's like talking about Pete Rise being a .300 career hitter, which is true, but he also had a 20 year stretch where he hit nearly .330. It's hard for me to hold longevity against a guy

My bad. I remembered I waited on Victor bc you were the only one that needed a catcher.

Hey the Wolves won last night! lolzzz

Pettitte was a good starting pitcher who did have some great games, shit take away his 3 starts against the Twins and that ERA is over 4. A 4.06 ERA and a WHIP of 1.403 in the World Series is not dominating, he was a good pitcher who pitched for the Yankees, he didn't need to be fantastic to win just keep 'em in the game.

Nobody said he wasn't good... But he was helped AND hurt by pitching in so many playoff games... Of course when you have the most playoff games pitched you SHOULD have the most playoff wins, and he does on both...

He has a total of 44 GS in 32 Series, of those 32 series he had 16 of them with an ERA of less than 3.... That is pretty great.... and this is why playing so much also Hurt him, because his numbers dip because of the other 16 series...

In the WS, he pitched 13 games in 8 series, he has an ERA of over 4, and had 3 series of better than 3 ERA...

He had 29 QS in those 44 starts and 7 QS in 13 WS games...

He is certainly better than his career playoff stats show, but I wouldn't call him one of the best playoff pitchers

That's spin. A 19-11 season with 276 innings pitched and 3.80 ERA puts you top 5 for a Cy Young award. He put up those numbers facing the best teams throwing their best pitchers. History will disagree with you my friend

I can live with this assessment. He's not my #1 or #2

LOLZZZ, 3.81 ERA 1.305 WHIP top 5 for CY? Maybe in a real down year for pitching. History may disagree with me because he won 5 rings but the fact remains he was not as you say "fantastic" in the post season.

He wasn't always the ace of the staff so no he wasn't always facing the other teams best pitcher and as I said he was playing for the Yankees, just keep them in the game and you got a great chance to win.
