I think even the "fans" who look for rain on a sunny day have to admit that Brown is one hell of a pitcher and when healthy, certainly qualifies as a #1 ace. :rock: His parasite illness just may be a blessing in disguise, since it gave him a chance to rest his back and be fresh for the post season. :think: |

Minus Wood and I agree with that list. Wood is all hype. He has amazing stuff, but he doesn't get it done with consistancy. |

I don't mean to say he isn't a very good pitcher, but he's also inconsistant. I'd rather have Brown than Wood. |

I can take off Wood but I can also add Glavine, Clemens, Hudson, and Moyer. This season you can include Leiter in this list, but I'm not enough of a homer to make the argument. |

Not to bash Brown, but part of an Ace's job is being healthy. But hey - if he can stay healthy for the playoffs, then he can be our Playoff Ace. That's what we really need anyway. That really should be Priority #1 for this team for the rest of the season. Keep Brown healthy for the playoffs. If that motherfu<ker so much as farts, you put his ass on the DL. |

When Brown has his A-#1 stuff no team is beating him. But the same goes for the other 10 or so top pitchers in baseball. The question with Brown is health. |

Nobody ever said Brown wasnt a good pitcher . What we said was that he was fragile , and you could guarantee he was gonna spend time on the DL . Well , we were right about that , now lets just hope he doesnt have to go back again . There are no guarantees with Brown . I am going to start holding my....... breath ........right .......now . |

I can think of 6 or 7 pitchers that are better than him, and another group of pitchers that I would consider equal to him. I'm not trying to take anything away from Brown. |

TimoTool, the point is you can make an argument for Brown being one of the top 5 pitchers in the game. When Brown is healthy he's one of the best....PERIOD> |

I've said he sucks THIS SEASON, which was true earlier in the year. When I found out he had a parasite, I eased up. |

I would agree, Brown might not be top 5. But he is in the top 8 for sure. And there is NO WAY in hell Moyer is better. |
