This isn't exactly a momentum creator like a Victorino etc.You're a Lackey/Tex fan. Both have been going home quickly in the post. Those are Grade 2 players. YOU EVER SEE A BIG WHITE LURCH YA DIDN'T LIKE?
Lackey does have a ring doesnt he? Post season numbers are not meaningful unless taken in context. If the hitter behind the player in question is weak or not hitting well then wont the first player rarely see a good pitch? All Texiera has done since hitting the majors as a starter is hit at a high level and continue to get better. I am no huge fan of his but do appreciate his abilities and realize that he hasnt had the mainstream exposure that a player of his statur should have. He is a hall of fame caliber player if he maintains a similar pace for 7 or 8 more years. He isnt as good as Pujols but exactly who is? By the way Tex should pass Garvey in HR's midseason of 2010.
