Hi Susie: Who's "Razzie?

Lee - since you're a Sox fan ...

... you won't mind if I re-debunk the urban legend about Pedro being a 6-inning pitcher?

Exhibit B

And the question to which all of baseball will be looking forward to finding an answer next season

Well Lee, I can't bet against the Sox. But I see the Yankees coming back with a better staff, an extra setup guy, a younger center fielder and the same lineup that won 100+.

I also see the Sox with 2 holes in their rotation and needing a right fielder that can hit lefties and a shortstop.

But I won't bet against The Sox, that's a mortal sin in my religion. :)

It all doesn't matter. The Yankees will go out and sign whatever they need. This is why Lieber is interchangeable with a host of other pitchers. They will get whoever they want and leave the rest for the remaining scrubs to fight over.
As to Pedro being a 6 inning pitcher, that's silly. Just because the guy goes 100 pitches doesn't mean he's limited to 6 innnings anyway. Many times, his 100 pitches will take him through the 8th. I would recommend steroids for your memory problems as well.
