I still say that right now, a Giants fan can certainly argue that they currently have the best rotation in the NL even with the Phils signing of Lee. The old man of the Giants 4 is Sanchez at 28. 3 of the Phillies 4 are all over 30.

when you root for a team, the only thing that matters is championships. I dont think that means individual accomplishments dont mean anything, they are nice. Obviously, because Halladay was stuck on the Blue Jays 95% of his career & didnt get a ring, doesnt mean that he hasnt had a HOF career to this point.
But I'd rather have a WS 2010 ring than a 2010 cy young award (Halladay)... as a fan.. any day. I would bet that Halladay would trade his award for a ring also.
