I don't think it would take me that long to recall the polar/nonpolar AA's or the acidic basic neutral ones ... yeah, I have to check out those R groups again.
As for the pitching debate, don't even go to the realm of ERA. The NL is weaker AND they have pitchers hitting. If you look, on average NL pitchers have about 1 point less in ERA. My point is this:
Loaiza is easily the best of any of these pitchers so far;
Wood and Prior BARELY take out Buehrle and Colon, Garland is better than both Estes and Clement, and Dan Wright is better than Estes. The Sox bullpen is atrocious outside of our two lefties, one of which is injured. Koch is injured or just sucks, and Gordon sucks too.
I'm interested to see what kind of FA I'll get. Remember, Cubs dont' win until they trade Sosa. Obviously, they don't need that douche bag to win, anyway.
