Baseball: who

clemens or mathewson

You with these OPTIONS questions. I am the only one bored enough to respond to them. And I would choose Mathewson.

wow pretty riskay clemens is considered by a lot of people as the best pitcher ever
i in fact wouldnt mind having either on my team

Clemens is considered one of the greatest ever but would you rather have his 3.18 ERA or Mathewson's 2.13? Mathewson also threw more complete games and innings than Clemens. In modern times, Mathewson would be a blessing for a team's bullpen.

if clemens had john mcgraw as a manager he would be going the distance every game ...clemens is one of the few tough pitchers in our era

Even if he is the toughest pitcher of our era, he still doesn't pitcha complete game every game, so he wouldn't be conditioned enough to throw one every game. BTW, have you ever heard that story about John Mcgraw and how he started a fight that resulted in a fire that burned a stadium (I should say park) to the ground?

yes youve told me and clemens conditions in the off season better than any pitcher in major league history besides possibly nolan ryan....christy had mcgraw as a tough gritty who leaves the pitcher in and clemens has so furit cake managing the astros and plus if the 1910's nad 20's giants had brad lidge they would use him

Walter johnson, and he threw one pitch half of his career and dominated, imagine if he had the curve to his advantage

How do you know he only had a fastball. I'm sure for him to be that dominating he would have thrown acouple other pitches in there as well.

he never threw anything else in that time, its been said alot

he had a curve ball and mathewson's putout pitch was the fadeaway fastball

he didnt have a curve for a long time

and pitchers today have like 4-5 pitches each

he had a curve since he was 21

walter johnson didnt have a curve for a long time im telling you alot of experts said it, and what are your sources

his autobiography

you dont own that

and show me i dont believe you

i bought it at barnes and noble "The Big Train"

read an excerpt and you dont own it
