Re: Who has the best EOG team?
There's not one team in Major League Baseball that would take Anderson over Peavy. Not one.

Re: Who has the best EOG team?
I guess if money was a question, people may take Anderson, but if money wasn't an issue there really isn't one.
Peavy is 28 and he's a Cy Young winner. He's velocity is up once again, and even if you hate him he's an ace.

Re: Who has the best EOG team?
anderson has never really had health issues and at 21 he had a BB/K ratio of 3.33 which is silly good. He got over 54% grounders on balls put in play, he had a whip under 1.29 despite statistics showing he was unlucky on balls put in play.
everything suggests hes every bit of an ace. just a matter of when, not many in the al at 22.

A Rare Bright Spot for the A’s
by Dave Allen - August 5, 2009 <!-- AddThis Button BEGIN --> - <script type="text/javascript">var addthis_config = { services_compact: 'email, facebook, twitter, ballhype, yardbarker, more', services_exclude: 'print'}</script>Share this Article<script type="text/javascript" src="http://s7.addthis.com/js/250/addthis_widget.js?pub=dkappelman"></script><!-- AddThis Button END -->
The A’s came into the season looking to contend with some newly acquired position players and a group of young pitchers. The acquisitions didn’t hit and the young pitcher’s have been shaky, so the A’s traded off Matt Holliday and Orlando Cabrera to continue to stock their growing farm system and push contention off for another year. In a frustrating year there have been some bright spots, one is Brett Anderson. He has a FIP right at 4 and had the third best FIP in July.
Throughout his minor league career Anderson has been known for his very good command and great ground ball numbers. Interestingly it looks like he throws a four-seam fastball, which only gets 38% GBs. Most ground ball pitchers throw a ’sinking’ two-seam fastball, which gets most of their grounders. Anderson, though, doesn’t get many grounders from his fastball. Instead his main ground ball pitch is his slider.
According to the BIS classification Anderson is just one of four pitchers to have thrown over 30% sliders so far this year. The pitch is very interesting. It has the speed of a slider,
and the movement of a curve.
Unlike most sliders which show a pronounced platoon split, Anderson’s shows none, more like a curve. As a result he throws it almost equally to both LHBs and RHBs. The top sliders in the game get huge whiff rates, in the 40% range, by comparison Anderson’s is rather meager at just 25%. But Anderson can get his in the zone over 52% of the time and it induces ground balls over 68% of the time. Both of these rates are very high for sliders. All together it is worth almost 13 runs and is the third best slider in the game.
Anderson is a really interesting pitcher. Most ground ball/control guys do it by throwing two-seam fastballs around 70% of the time. Anderson does it with a slurvy-slider which moves like a curve, has little platoon split, he can locate in the zone and hitters pound into the ground.

Re: Who has the best EOG team?
Sure Prince is a top 5 bat but i think Kendry will be closer to him then Jered to Wain
I am a Kendry believer, dude is a sick bat and has been red hot in the spring so far

Gamer, he plays for Golden State. Let's wait to see his numbers on a team that doesn't have 30 extra possessions a game.
