August 5, 200323 yr Prior leading with 52.6% Willis in 2nd with 34.4 percent Link: ESPN Poll He is also int he Poll on who should win cy young at this point of the season Some Other Poll
August 5, 200323 yr thats not suprising that they'd pick prior but i wonder who would be picked if willis woulda been here at the beginning of the season. me coulda been something like 15-3 with a 2.50 i think the only thing that makes them pick prior so quickly is the amount of k's he gets. (which is understandable)
August 5, 200323 yr Yea if Willis was with us the entire year it would of been close between Prior and Willis. Prior is a very good pitcher also but i still like D Train better....
August 5, 200323 yr No because Prior is the smart choice Dwillis is good but he is not going to be The Ace Prior will be...
August 5, 200323 yr willis will not be an ace? joe how many hits of lsd did you take? lmao just be quiet, i think you're a little pissed off with us sweeping you and winning 8 straight
August 5, 200323 yr willis will not be an ace? joe how many hits of lsd did you take? lmao just be quiet, i think you're a little pissed off with us sweeping you and winning 8 straight No actually I don't do drugs. Also if you do drugs it takes away from your inability to read kind of like when I said that Willis will not be The Ace Prior will be. You see I meant that Prior is going to be better than Willis. Prior is going to be The Better Player than Willis. You see Prior has already had almost two seasons under his belt he has avoided The Sophmore jinx last time I checked Dontrelle has yet to play his second year. Dontrelle has to prove that he is no Flash in the pan before he can be considered better than Prior.
August 5, 200323 yr no joe i sa exactly what you wrote. and thats why i asked you there has to be something wrong if you think willis cannot be just as good as prior in another year just look willis is tearing up the league after just 18 career starts.
August 5, 200323 yr Author willis will not be an ace? joe how many hits of lsd did you take? lmao just be quiet, i think you're a little pissed off with us sweeping you and winning 8 straight I think we won 6 striaght not 8....

Who the hell is Joe? How the hell does "Willis will not be The Ace Prior will be..." Saying Willis will not be an ace? I'll put it into an easier term for you seeing that you may need it... Prior is going to be better than Willis. Now onto the fact that Willis is a lock to be better than Prior, Jimmy Rollins had a good rookie season and what has he done since? Oh yeah lost The Lead off spot in Philly. Bud Smith and Ankiel both Rookie Phenoms... One is injured in AAA Scranton for The Phils. The Other injured in AA ball. You can not say Dontrelle is a lock when he has yet to play his second season. Mark Prior has had two great seasons something your boy can't say about himself.
August 5, 200323 yr Rune is right about Prior being the better player but i like D-Train more. Prior has better control and is just a smarter Pitcher than Willis. Dontrelle is in fact a good pitcher but you cant compare him with Prior.
August 5, 200323 yr willis will not be an ace? joe how many hits of lsd did you take? lmao just be quiet, i think you're a little pissed off with us sweeping you and winning 8 straight I think we won 6 striaght not 8.... 8 is the correct number
August 5, 200323 yr Author oh. if the fish did win 10 straight, Minnervini said he would die his hair blond... ala Lou Piniella

Dontrelle has to prove that he is no Flash in the pan before he can be considered better than Prior. then hold off judgment until willis has another year under his belt, prior is nasty but I think willis can be nastier, they will both be Ace's, but like you said, hold off saying who will be better untill D plays another year, you cant say at this point that Prior will be better, we just dont know

August 6, 200323 yr you know what, i honestly think d train has kinda proved himself too Of course you think that because you are A Homer but where has he proved that he will not face The Dreaded Sophmore Jinx and go down just like Ankiel a guy who was supposed to have just as big career as Willis? Prior has dominated for two seasons, Seasons where he has faced teams almost every team more than once and is just as unhittable as he was when he arrived. So post some information where it says Dontrelle has avoided his Sophmore Slump. Oh wait you can't prove that. Dontrelle will be great but not as great as Prior.
August 6, 200323 yr ok rune so then is not fair to judge dontrelle until next season thats it you're contradicting yourself. how can you judge dontelle and prior has proved himself in two seasons if dontrelle hasnt played a second season yet. thats it just wait till next year you'll be eating your words not even rick ankiel was as dominating as willis has been
August 6, 200323 yr yea me 2, but what rune is saying doesnt make sense because prior hasnt gone through the sophomore jinx and he has so called proved himself. but lets just judge dontrelle without seeing his sophomore season

This question does not say who do you build your team around in 2005? Were talking about right now and right now Prior has proven himself, Prior is a guy you could take now and be alot more confident in his future. Like I said Dontrelle will be great. But I'd rather take Prior and feel more comfortable.
August 6, 200323 yr oh. if the fish did win 10 straight, Minnervini said he would die his hair blond... ala Lou Piniella The 8 games straight was against the Phils, not overall
August 6, 200323 yr i just voted for Willis... and the standing are... Rich Harden - 10.1% Mark Prior - 51.5% Brandon Webb - 3.1% Dontrelle Willis - 35.2%
