The Best Five Ace Pitchers In Baseball

That sport called baseball is really quiet right now as the new season will not be starting for a few months and the World Series was finished quite a while ago.

As a result, I like to pass the time by taking a few moments to reflect on the current state of the game. I’ve written many articles of the sort, and today I’d like to pay homage to five of the best pitchers in professional baseball today.

Here are my top five as I see them. Feel free to agree or disagree, and I’d love to see you share your thoughts if you have a different opinion.

Coming in at #5 on my list is Zack Greinke, who definitely came away with the greatest season last year as a pitcher. If he can do that again during the next season and the season after that, then he is going to move up on my list for sure. When all is said and done, Greinke is going to go far in this sport, especially seeing what a dangerous pitcher he continues to be.

At #4 we have Roy Halladay, who is a consistently reliable baseball pitcher. It is obvious that Halladay will someday be in the Hall of Fame.

Chris Carpenter has the #3 spot. Somehow he finds a way to always be fantastic in this sport. You would have thought that not playing for almost two seasons would have made him rusty, but, in fact, Carpenter actually pitched better than he ever has before.

Holding the #2 position on my list is John Santana. It’s true, after he joined the Mets, no Cy Young award has been won by him; but, each and every season Santana can be counted on to make it an awesome one, which is why he comes in at the #2 position.

The #1 spot on my list definitely goes to Tim Lincecum. He has dominated this sport for two years now and is without a doubt the pitcher who is best at getting strikeouts. WOW is the word that comes to mind when I think about Lincecum’s ERA in the twos!

Aside from baseball, this author also regularly pens articles on modern floor lamps and mini pendant light fixtures.
