As amazing as Kershaw has been (and I consider myself a fan of his), if I had my choice between him and Bumgarner for the Indians, I might have to take Bumgarner. Dude just locks it down come October.

I agree. They're not really predictors at all. Just fun thoughts to kick around.
Exactly, trying to find some of these facts give you an indication can be good at assuaging (or inducing) the anxiety that all sports fans know.

That is a tough comparison.

If the dogs had a bully, or a manager, would his blowout have been blowups? Knowing that you have no bully support behind you has to make you push in the mid-innings.

I think I would have to take Bum, though. He has proven that he is nails when it counts. With 'shaw, you can only argue that can be, or should be.

I think either way, you have a winner if you have one if them.

Bumgarner, and no exaggeration, it's not even close. This postseason is proof positive.

Kershaw looked scared at times in the playoffs. You could see it in his eyes. Bumgarner? Not scared.

Also, Michael Morse looks like Andrew WK and Henry Rollins had a kid.

Peavy gets hammered. 2.1IP 5H 3R

Petit gets them going until the 5th, gives up a run.

Timmy the kid Lincecum pitches 2 innings, 4 SO

Romo comes in and cleans up another 2.

Casilla wins it in the 9th

after being down 4-1 in the 8th, pence hits a grand slam to go up by 1

you heard it here first!

I'm loving this, but no Bumgarner?
