When the guy is healthy, I'd honestly put him #1
Keep in mind that he isn’t even using his most dominating pitch (slider) nowadays; it’s all fastballs and variations of his changeup.
Obviously, he can’t use it because it’s too much strain on his arm, but it’s pretty crazy to think about.

12 pitch inning for Wand-Rod...
He seems to be settling in after 7 hits and 6 runs

how was the play?

that’s not my name, nor am i a woman… but ok. the 12 pitch thing was sarcastic, hence “settling in” after 7 hits and 6 runs

Guess they don't teach history in school anymore...
Let my ashes blow in a beautiful snow from the prevailing 30 mile an hour southwest wind...
When my last remains go flying over the left field wall, I'll bid the bleacher bums adieu,
And I will come to my final resting place, out on Waveland Avenue. --Steve Goodman
