Greg Maddux, Randy Johnson, Tom Glavine, and Trevor Hoffman personified pitching greatness throughout their Hall Of Fame caliber careers.

Dwight Gooden tossed an improbable no-hitter on this date fifteen years ago against the high-powered Seattle Mariners. This writer was sitting in the upper deck of the old Yankee Stadium waiting for history to unfold. Gooden suffered numerous arm related injuries and missed the entire 1995 season for violating MLB drug usage policy. “Doctor K” […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
As the pitching in Major League Baseball continues to improve, or the hitting continues to decline, a number of pitchers have put together fantastic seasons so far in 2011. In the National League, I’m looking at a four man race between Clayton Kershaw, Roy Halladay, Cliff Lee, and Cole Hamels for the Cy Young Award. […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

Justin Verlander is your 2011 AL MVP. The 28 year-old right-hander became only the second player in MLB history to win the ROY, Cy Young Award, and MVP in his career. Verlander joins Brooklyn Dodgers great, Don Newcombe as the only players ever to accomplish the feat. The Detroit Tigers ace received 13 of 28 […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
I’m reminiscing about Mark Mulder this afternoon. Thanks to today’s retirement of Pat Burrell, who was selected one pick ahead of Mulder in the 1998 amateur draft, I’m thinking fondly of his somewhat brief, but very successful stint as a member of the Oakland A’s. Mulder was famous for being part of Oakland’s “Big Three” with […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
