I can't keep track of who you are arguing with, Johnny.

Who said "that W-L is meaningless in one respect (his overall record) and then say that it's meaningful in this one"?
I didn't.
I am basing it off of BB/K rate, btw. Though, b/c of HR rates, Appier has the better DIPS numbers.

B/c it is close, I call them about equal.

Thanks! I gave you that one b/c you missed it
Again, I don't know what you are arguing with here, Johnny.

Their H/9 and BABIP are almost exactly the same.

Again, I think he's a HOFer right now, but it's REALLY close, and he's got a lot of career left.

Sure, that makes sense. I don't have as much faith as Eck does that he is clear cut.
