So we can really see how wrong idiots like this guy are.

What I come away with from this is actually that Don Sutton was a lot better than I realized.

I already looked at Ryan’s page, and it was right in line with what I’d expect. And I also would expect Blyleven to be better than Ryan. What I wouldn’t have expected is Sutton to be similar.
