Do you mean whom are we a fan of, or whom would we want on the mound in a crucial game right now? Different answers ...

Best in the game right now, I go with Webb. The guy has gotten some attention for his scoreless streak recently, but he's always been underrated. Got jipped out of the NL Rookie award in 2003 and I ranted about that how great he was at the time ... he's lived up to what I thought of his capabilities.

Agree on Wakefield, although with the knuckle you're either on or off. Beckett is serious business. I really like Bedard, though, and think he's one of the few things the O's have going in their favor. He is a solid pitcher and I think will be for years.

If you want to know favorites: Mark Prior (don't laugh ... I haven't given up ... ), Bedard, Maddux, Zack Greinke (great talent, lots of emotional struggles for this kid), Josh Towers, Glavine, Bronson Arroyo, Schilling ... I have a lot I follow. Pitching is my favorite part of baseball, by far.
