All Star Discussion: is the NL pitching deep enough this year to finally break the losing streak!?!?!?

NyMets609 · Jul 12, 2010

seems ok to say the NL holds a big advantage in pitching this year but that starting line up for AL is just insane. and they have won what? an absurd 13 straight? but really do think this could be NL time to break the streak, we have seen this year just how much pitching has dominated.

Everyone thinks the same every year. I don't buy it. I say fade NL until they win.

very true but we have not seen seen pitching dominate like it has this year in a long long time.

American league lineup would be -150 if they had a pitcher.... NL gonna send 4 guys out there thru first 7 that can all be the best pitcher in AL squad... Total 8.5 in game with dh- so books know something- NL pitching wins it- but the nl bats vs american league arms hold stronger advantage than the 8 studs and guerero hold over nl arms.

Take the plus money and ride yadier Molina and Ryan Braun to the bank... These unlikely heroes will knock in some runs.

Ya I am making a big play on the NL today.. I will wait and see what type of line I can get around start time..

u think the first four nl pitchers pitch 7 innings??????????

FearTheRaven · Jul 13, 2010

this line is hard to gauge.

AL is a slight fav although NL is throwing out the much better pitchers and AL has won 12 straight.

AL has dominated interleague play for L5 years.
They have had to face all those great pitchers in the process.
Is the NL pitching stats great because they have poorer hitters?

If it was a 7 game series I'd take AL in a heartbeat.....but 1 game?
Plus money probby not a bad plan.

i dont think u would see the amazing 4 pitchers of the nl all in one game in 7 series...but to be honest......in 7 gzames series al would see ubaldo twice....halladay twice, and jj twice.....they might not win 1 game if it was a true 7 games
