No. Pedro's ERA wont be that high.

 

17-6

2.91 ERA

255 SO

219 INN

 

 

 

Those are my predictions for Pedro in 2005. Especially if the Mets can land Delgado and Varitek.

I doubt a sub 3 ERA.

They need to be adjusted to time period and ballpark size

 

 

Shea didn't change while Doc Gooden was pitching.

The time period also wasn't too terribly long ago.

Nolan Ryan was on a lot worse teams during his career then Pedro. C'mon man, there is still no was you can compare Pedro Martinez to Nolan Ryan.

 

Do you think Pedro could last 27 seasons!! He will barely get through 18 seasons.

 

Ryan was a Horse, Pedro is anything but.

Show me some stats that backup your opinions, no hitters don't count. Derek Lowe has a no hitter. Hideo Nomo has two.

He has 7, 7! Incuding one past the age of 40. Lets see pedro do that.

This Yankee fan, who is more knowledgable than every Yankee fan on this site COMBINED seems to think Pedro is the most dominant pitcher ever.

And I suggest you read the whole thread before showing me "he said that so he can't be" or "HE KNOWZ WATZ ^!"

The only reason you call him more knowledgable is because he agrees with you. You need to learn that just because someone disagrees with you, does not automatically make them a dumbass.

I cant believe that you actually think that Pedro Martinez is better then Nolan Ryan....For the love of god he is not!

 

Do you think Pedro was better then Koufax?

 

How about Clemens?

 

Or maby Randy Johnson

 

Why do you think Ryan got the most total H.O.F. votes received with 491?

 

Ryan also has the 1900's single season record with 383 SO, With Koufax on his tail with 382.

 

Pedro wont even win 300 games.

He's more dominant than all of them, and you can show me K numbers all you want. How about Pedro's K/9 rate, 13.21, DH included which was the best until Randy broke it in 2001 with 13.41, don't forget he got to face the pitcher.

 

Curt Schilling has the same ERA+ (stat that measures dominance the most) than Koufax.

 

Nobody in the history of the game is 49% better than the average pitcher in their league other than Pedro. Pedro is 67% better, Lefty Grove is 48% better.
