You likely know by now that Roy Oswalt is heading to the DL and he might be there for a while. But don't fret, Phillies fans, because the Phillies top 3 are the top 3 pitchers in the NL, and probably the whole league. The numbers and rankings for Halladay, Hamels, and Lee are un-freakin-real.
No huge analysis for now, but I had to bring it to your attention because you don't see this very often. I also suggest going to the mlb.com pitching leaders page just to see all our guys at the top. Now check out where Halladay, Hamels, and Lee rank in the National League.
Roy Halladay, Cole Hamels, and Cliff Lee NL Rankings:
Wins
Halladay - 9 (T-1st)
Hamels - 9 (T-1st)
ERA
Halladay - 2.51 (T-3rd)
Hamels - 2.51 (T-3rd)
Lee - 2.87 (7th)
WHIP (Walks + Hits per IP)
Hamels - 0.933 (1st)
Strikeouts
Halladay - 119 (1st)
Lee - 114 (3rd)
Hamels - 103 (5th)
Innings
Halladay - 118.1 (1st)
Lee - 113 (2nd)
Hamels - 104 (9th)**
Complete Games
Halladay - 4 (1st)
Lee - 3 (2nd)
** Don't forget that Hamels is the Phillies #4 pitcher, meaning his 15 starts one less start than nearly all leaders except Kyle Lohse (who also has 15). Hamels' next start should bump him up to third in innings.
