and the best pitcher in the NL so far this year is....

[schmidtfan20]

Cole Hamels

8-2 and the lowest ERA of any of the pitchers with 8 wins.

Thats all.

I agree. I follow him since he's on my fantasy team and he seem to dominate every start.

and lately the Phillies haven't been hitting at all, dude is still winning games...1-0 and 2-1. MONEY

If you could magically take away that first start clunker his ERA would be 2.27.

He's also averaging more than 1 K/IP again...

 

[hockeyfights]

No doubt it's Jair Jurrjens. 7-2 with a 1.75 ERA in 10 starts

But he's not on the Phillies!

 

[scotty21690]

I'll take Halladay with his 7 K:BB ratio....

Ill take Cole, his 8 wins, all his strikeouts, and his 2008 WS MVP.

Thanks
Kevin

What does a 2008 WS MVP have to do with "this year".

Id take Hamels on the mound over a one year wonder.

 

[sportscardtheory]

Hamels is certainly having a great season.

 

[gonzagacubs]

Total homer pick, but Zambrano would be 7-2 or 8-2 if Marmol wouldn't have blown saves his last couple of starts. Besides, he's also hitting over .300.

Sorry, carry on. :lol:

Kevin,

I'm a huge Jair Jurrjens fan(still can't believe the Tigers traded him and Gorkys for Edgar Renteria ::facepalm:: ::facepalm:: ), but I do agree with you I would take Hamels over him-but Jurrjens is no one year wonder. Check out his 2009 season with a 2.60 ERA, and even 2008 with a 3.68 ERA.

Both are having fine years so far.

 

[hagausaf]

Jair easily right now. End of the year maybe not. Yes I'm a homer but no Braves fan can say they expected him to be our ace. Heck I thought he might lose his job and be trade bait during the season but now he's probably going to be the NL AS starting pitcher.

 

[craiger122003]

Didn't Hamels get ROCKed all over the place last year?
Where were you when he was getting rocked? Did you post about it then?
Thought so

 

[fkw]

Jair Jurrjens

 

[MacK]

Kyle Lohse?

7-2 with a 2.41 ERA in 12 starts. .988 WHIP.

I'd say Hamels & Lohse are very close. Hamels has the ever so slight edge in WHIP & K:BB.

 

[Nick1190]

Sean O'Sullivan and Vin Mazzaro beg to differ.

 

[wolfmanalfredo]

Greag Maddux hands down
