fringe Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 I know he's not really a Giant but whatever uni he has on, the guy can plain out deal. Plus, we'll not likely see another 300 game winner- at least not for the next decade. Hats off to Randy Johnson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ditto Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 I was never a fan, but I guess I have to extend my congrats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Virginia Giant Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 Congrats Unit. Quite possibly the last 300 game winner we'll see in our lifetime. Wish i was off work so I could have watched the game. One of my favorite players. Pedro's only 86 behind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herc Posted June 6, 2009 Share Posted June 6, 2009 here we go again. Pedro's only 86 behind. in over 200 less starts and over 1300 less innings. 214-99 is such a sick career record to have. to put it in perspective, he won more than half his starts, johnson won less than half his.

RandolphScott Posted June 6, 2009 Share Posted June 6, 2009 Randy Johnson: 45 years old Pedro Martinez: 37 years old. That being said, if I had a choice of either Randy or Pedro, I'm taking Pedro every time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a Bunyanesque figure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a Bunyanesque figure. definitely. i just think people are going to talk about pedro the way they talk about kofax as far as having a half dozen or so absolutely dominating years. i can see why vg likes rj, he's a lot like nolan ryan as far as having ridiculous cumulative career stats.

Is Pedro even pitching anymore? i seriously don't know, i heard earlier in the year the Rangers were looking at him, but that was it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem is he was just as likely to walk you as strike you out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JMFP Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 Thanks Randy for all those wonderful games you pitched the Yanks too! Yeah, I'm still trying to decide if he fucked the Yanks more when he was a Mariner, a D-Back, or a Yankee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
