July 6, 200719 yr Oswalt Replaces Smoltz in ASG Oswalt's stats: 7-5 3.52 ERA Gorzelanny's stats: 9-4 3.10 ERA Harang's stats: 9-2 3.84 ERA Hudson's stats: 8-5 3.12 ERA Maine's stats: 9-4 2.74 ERA How do you logically select Oswalt over any of these guys (except maybe Harang)??:confused:

July 6, 200719 yr Oswalt is the only realy BIG name pitcher there that everyone knows. Tim Hudson? John Maine?
July 6, 200719 yr Tim Hudson? John Maine? Those are big name pitchers, but not everyone knows their names. Baseball people know their names, but people that are not baseball people do not know their names over Roy Oswalt's.
July 6, 200719 yr None of the above should go in before SD's Chris Young. He got in on the fan vote...
July 6, 200719 yr Those are big name pitchers, but not everyone knows their names. Baseball people know their names, but people that are not baseball people do not know their names over Roy Oswalt's. Maybe Maine, but Hudson has some major name recognition.
July 6, 200719 yr What does the pitching rotation for those teams look like before the break? If Maine, Harang, and Hudson all pitch on Sunday and Oswalt pitches Friday, what good will it do to have a player on the roster you can't use?
July 6, 200719 yr If you told me I had a one game shot at $1 million dollars and could pick any of the pitchers above to start for my team then I'm taking Oswalt without batting an eye! Statistics don't always tell the whole story IMO.

Statistics don't always tell the whole story IMO. I agree with that but the All-Star game is about who is performing this year. The other pitchers have outperformed Oswalt.

Statistics don't always tell the whole story IMO. I agree. It doesnt mean he deserves to be on the AS team but he's clutch.
July 6, 200719 yr Without looking at their team's schedule and pitching rotation, could it be that Oswalt may be the only one that would be able to throw an inning or two? :confused:
