Halladay or Greike?

[SSLP]

Tough call but I go with Halladay , Greike still has not convinced me yet

[AgainstAllOdds]

Halladay

[Deuce]

Greinke, has no offense to back him up, always lights out.

[SSLP]

true Kansas is lacking sticks

[paco]

Greinke, only 25 yrs old, just needs some offense

[KingRevolver]

Halladay...easily. Greinke seems to have the talent but he's had hot starts before (nothing like this) but still not 100 percent convinced.

[Mudcat]

Greinke has had a nice 12 games so far this season - and he has had a respectable career to date which is improving nicely - but he would have to sustain excellence over a much longer period of time before he can be considered in the same league as Halladay.


Lifetime numbers:

Greinke 42-47, 3.96 era
Halladay 141-67, 3.46 era


Now if we are just asking what would happen if the Cy Young was awarded today, that would be a different discussion. But if we are comparing overall credentials, Halladay is da man.

[Brock Landers]

are you kidding me?

Greinke had a couple of good months, Hallday has done it for YEARS!

[TheIntegrityKid]

I think Greinke will EVENTUALLY be better, but Halladay does more of a track record.

However, if you asked me which pitcher to start my team with, or to pitch THIS YEAR's game 7 of the World Series with, I think I'm gonna have to go with Greinke

Talent has to break through somewhere as it ascends to the top!!

[Fischnasty]

halladay for sure, if i had to have one guy to pitch one game right now. much more consistent over the long haul than grienke. that being said, if i were building a team id probably rather have grienke.

[Fischnasty]

integritykid beat me to it. sorry for the lame repeat post.

[darrell74]

Halladay

If you watch Grienkie pitch, you will be able to tell that he can't maintain, and getting a little worse

Halladay is consistent
Might have 2 more bad outings at the most, for the rest of the year

[AMBlai01]

Gotta go with Halladay...I am not even sure that I would start a team with Greinke, he has mental issues that could show back up in a heart beat if he starts struggling at some time in his career....I don't like players that are mental cases.

[Tsoprano]

Halladay will bring the pay day

[Richkas]

Carpenter

[TheIntegrityKid]

when 95 percent of the public go one way- go the other... go Greinke!!

nice call with Carp... he is looking amazing again!!

[DennisGreen]

Greinke is good until his prescription for Paxil runs out. Halladay FTW

[dwaechte]

Halladay is phenominal.
