+/- 23 wins for Brandon Webb

[Black Jesus]

How many games will brandon webb win this season?

I think its a push I hope Webb doesn't get hurt but anything can happen during the course of a long season, but it should be fun to watch the ride webb puts on and hope he gets to 23 wins . And hey if our offense keeps giving him run support like they are doing then he will defintally get it barring injury

They've been giving him 6+ runs a game, that won't keep up. Webb is great, but highly dependent on the defense behind him to make double plays. If Hudson is out for a while, that could hurt Webbs win total. The D'backs give up either the most unearned runs in baseball, or close to it, so stats like that will hurt him. Getting 23 wins is an extremely difficult task for anyone (Randy Johnson only did it once, getting 24), so saying under is the safe bet.

What is the most wins for Webb in a season? Add two to it. Since Webb mainly pitches against #1 pitchers and the hitters behind him are still young, I think things tend to even out over the course of the year.

I'll take the under Bob.

This is the second time Webb has started the season 8-0 (see 2006)

 

[dreamcastrocks]

21

 

[Black Jesus]

yeah but not in 8 starts

 

[Nasser22]

24-25 and a Cy Young...he's on pace for 37 wins now

I say over 23, if he stays healthy, of course.

He has the best sinker in baseball. And, with his changeup this year, even more than before. And more poise. And more confidence.

And an offense that can be carried by any player in the lineup in a given game.

And great fielding up the middle, as well as in RF.

Webby has even become a bit of a hitter.

 

[ThunderCard]

27 with 1.90 era. Might be the best pitcher this decade

 

[DWKB]

The past two games are the exact reason I chose under. No runs in one and no defense in the other.

Where is the vBookie for this thread. I'm owed some $$$!!

 

[Mulli]

Me too. I went under. Boo!

 

[Black Jesus]

i was pretty spot on with this over under 8 wins deep

I look like an idiot. I said +23. Vote with your head, not your heart.
