Bradford William Davis @bwd.bsky.social · 14hagain: Andy is literally the best #2-#3 starter ever. (in the sense that, you don't ideally want him to front the rotation, but you would never bench him in a playoff round) he raised his game in the postseason by being, in the aggregate, exactly himself across 15 years 3160
Bradford William Davis @bwd.bsky.social · 14hI think Sevy had a run in the 1st half 2018 where he was pitching at this level. but a lot of bad playoff games. schlittler been outstanding since day zero, plus utterly annihilating the Red Sox twice in the playoffs 280
Bradford William Davis @bwd.bsky.social · 15handy was awesome, but he's basically the greatest mid rotation starter of all time. (no shade.) this feels like grainy Guidry footage from '78 2180
