Dice-K vs The Big Unit

well this Sunday at 4:40ET is the game that ESPN should be showing later that night

Red Sox at Diamondbacks featuring Dice-K vs the Big Unit ....... neither seem to be as great as originally billed so it should be a great game

Wow... if only we could throw Clemens and Zito into the mix, we'd have the four most overhyped pitchers in baseball this season all in the same game! Seriously, this isn't a very attractive pitching match-up. Johnson has had moments of brilliance this season, and Matsuzaka has been good but not as good as everyone thought he'd be. It's not like we have a couple of top aces in their prime going at it here.

Yeah, I believe you're right about that. Though I think some of the curiosity factor's fading on Matsuzaka.

I won't jump up and down screaming "See I told you so" (Yet) Initially I felt the amount of money spent for Dice was far and away to much for an unknown quantity. I will say that when he is on, he is tough. I believe that in time, when he becomes more accustomed to MLB, he will be better . Question is how long will that take or more importantly does he really have what it takes to be in the majors ???

Re: Dice-K vs The Big Unit

Has anyone looked at the pathetic line-up that Arizona rolls out there? I predict he strikes out at least a dozen.

Re: Dice-K vs The Big Unit

who would have guessed this would have turned into a pitchers duel

both went 7 innings striking out 9

in the 8th the D-backs lead 2-1
