Who Is More Important To His Team's Division Title Chances - Porcello or Beckham?

by winningugly on Jun 29, 2009 9:16 PM CDT Comment 20 comments

Rick Porcello is 8-4 and pitches this evening for the Tiggers. The Savior was 3-3 with a walk tonight and had his first GWRBI this past weekend. The Tiggers desperately need their starters to go deep into games. The Sox desperately need to plug the gaping hole that was Fields. Who is more important to his team in helping bring home the AL Central flag? And why do these polls need to be 75 words long?

everyday players have a chance to make an impact every game. pitchers only once a week.

Correction, once every five games.

Starting pitchers, can pitch two games a week with the standard rotation depending what day they pitch.

I think they're EQUALLY important to the respective teams.

Too bad that wasn’t a poll choice.
