Is Brad Penny the next Sandy Koufax? Okay well, he is not Jewish (at least I do not think he is), but the guy has seven wins this year and an ERA of about 2.00. Doesn't that make him the next Sandy (isn't that a girl's name) Koufax? Maybe the next Fernando V (I don't know how to spell his last name and it's a pain to look up), or Orel H (ditto with the name!). I think so!

oh please put down the keyboard before you hurt yourself...Tavarez of the +4.00 lifetime ERA is horrible this year...Okijima is good...for about an inning...

though to be fair, Penny is no Sandy...

(PS...what'sa mikes?)

Koufax was consistant for seasons, and Penny just has a good start.

Brad Penny is not Jewish. (I know that for sure)

Sandy Koufax's real name is Sanford Koufax. Sandy is a nickname.

He is good, but not legendary.

If anybody is crazy, it's you.

Look outside the box, since there are plenty other players outside Boston's line-up.

well youre just a Dodger fan so it figures you would take her side

[MJHMarc]

I don't hate Boston. I'm just a Yankees fan, too.

By the way, Boston loves the Dodgers.

Where did JD Drew and Pedro Martinez come from?

Pedro came from the Expo's

Hmm... used to follow the Dodgers a lot in my younger days. Penny may be good, but he's no Koufax. He's also no Valenzuela, Hershiser, Drysdale, Mike Marshall, etc. etc. Got a long way to go before he cracks the best hurlers the Dodgers have seen throughout the years. But he is a pretty good one.

Sorry, dude. Pedro (better known then as Ramon's little brother) made his MLB debut September 24, 1992 for the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Well, its not like I lived way back when. I looked all this up today, and Penny sounded as good. Besides, Marc says you can't really compare different eras. Is Marc wrong?

It's all about where they are today and what they are accomplishing.
