It amazed me too how Pedro Martinez performed during the 2005 season, but, it totally was not a strech because during the 1997 season and the 2000 season, he had below a 1.90 ERA in both... And by the way, his ERA in this season is not even a record low for a starting pitcher. Just a truly dominate pitcher in my league right now. His stats for 2006 so far thru May 23rd are as follow... (7-0, 10 GS, 1.72 ERA, 22/85 BB/K).
As for Randy Johnson, the 2005 season marked the end of his storied career and he earned his place in the Hall of Fame. I think it was a fine season to finish his career, and he won another World Series ring WITHOUT being traded to the Yankees!!! Don't worry though Diamondback fans though, you have another veteran pitcher that has replaced SP Randy Johnson on the lineup. Welcome aboard RHP Pat Hentgen (1-5, 8 GS, 6.39 ERA, 14/24 BB/K, .317 OBA) ... And oh how the mighty D'Backs season of 2005 has quickly vanished, as the (18-25) D'Backs through May 23rd have just played horrible (mostly due to their pitching staff) despite having a top-flight starter in Brandon Webb (5-0, 10 GS, 2.49 ERA, 23/63 BB/K)
