2009 All NL East Team Pitching Staff
Hamels’ incredibly hot wife puts him over Santana in our rotation.
Sp1 - Cole Hamels, Phillies - He earned it with his playoff dominance
Sp2 - Johan Santana, Mets - He’s the multiple Cy winner but Hamels got his team to the promised land.
Sp3 - Mike Pelfrey, Mets - Finally lived up to his potential last season with mid-90’s fastball.
Sp4 - Ricky Nolasco, Marlins - Rising star performed very well last year as Marlins ace.
Sp5 - Jair Jurjjens, Braves - Big acquisition came up large for Braves in 08
LRP - John Maine, Mets - Outstanding makeup with mediocre stuff.
LRP - Josh Johnson, Marlins
MRP - Ryan Madson, Phillies - Very effective reliever
MRP - Matt Lindstrom, Marlins - Not too many throw harder than this righty.
MRP - Francisco Rodriguez, Mets - Choke artist brings his act to Mets, should fit right in.
SU - Mike Gonzalez, Braves
SU - JJ Putz, Mets - Just another high90’s fastball to add to our dominant bullpen in a division that was known for bullpen blowups in 08.
CP - Brad Lidge, Phillies - Coming off the perfect season, how can you pick anyone else?
