Who's the best pitcher in the sec?


I think it's Stratton (8-0 2.39 era)

Michael Roth until he graduates! Has the career wins, ERA and Rings to prove it. Stratton has been pretty amazing this year though.

It appears that way, but there are a lot of damn good pitchers in the conference this year.

Pitchers can't control that. All they can do is pitch. Wins are dependent on hitting as well. There are quite a few starters with similar records and as good or better ERAs.

I knew he had a lot and was wondering if someone would bring up a comparison of pitchers by IP, Ks, and K/9.

Ultimately, wins are the end all be all, but they aren't always the best way to measure a pitcher. There are pitchers with lesser ERAs, but more losses. That is on hitting, not the pitcher.

Stop dude just stop! Stratton is on an amazing run but SC's Roth (Fri) 4-0 2.57 ERA Holmes (Sun) 6-0 3.29 ERA so SC has 2 undefeated weekend starters that have been in the rotation all year. BTW Roth's career numbers prior to this year 17-5 1.57 ERA with 24 starts and oh yeah 2 RINGS!

Prior to this weekend y'all had a 3rd according to this. Didn't USCe sweep 'Bama? He should be undefeated as well then.

Didn't include him since he hasn't been weekend starter all year. Think he has 4 SEC weekend starts.

Wins aren't the end all be all for knowledgable baseball fans. A pitcher can't control his run support.

If we're talking about best stuff, then Stanek.

Got the loss last night because of our shitty bats, but had a no-hitter going into the 6th.
