trying to see who the best pitchers are Atlanta's Chris S is the number one pitcher he's 15 and three on the season with a 258 earn run average I was hoping to see where we are for pitching and Houston's Blanco is the ninth best pitcher in the league he's nine and six with a 3.14 earn run average Yankees do not have a top pitcher but Valdez is the 15th leading pitcher in the league for the Astros he's 13- six with a 3.27 earn run average that's pretty good the Astros have two pitchers in the top 20 there you go Yankees have none I think the Yankees are in a little trouble with their pitching to be honest with you yeah they can hit but you gotta have the pitching for the playoffs yep is there any other baseball topics you want to go over today that's a wrap they gotta win gotta
