What's weird is that Clemens had a higher WAR in regards to just pitching in 2005, but when you take hitting into account, Willis led the league in overall WAR.

We've knocked out 50 picks in just under 24 hours. Not a bad start.

I'm sure it'll slow a bit this weekend, but still, we seem to be in OK shape.

Ha. That's a pretty good stat.

He was such a fun player to watch. Everything about him during those first 3 years are so was electric. One of my very favorite regular season baseball games I've ever been to was Willis vs Randy Johnson in 2003.

And before he started beating up his ex wife. Trust me the thought has crossed my mind about mine but play like a champion, Chuck.

When he started hitting he was about as good an all around shortstop as you could be.
