Wash pitched out of his mind in 2002......

minus some shaky starts in the postseason……I think this is a fair ranking for him…

Quite amazing: He won 12 straight in '02!!

After losing his first two decisions, he went from April 13 to August 1st without a SINGLE LOSS.

He ended up 18-6 which was unconscious.

The big glitches in 2002 were his two World Series starts == he ended up with a 9.31 ERA and a win-loss record of 0-2 in that 2002 Fall Classic. I still recall his “oh well” demeanor after surrendering that 10,000 foot home-run to Barry Bonds in Game 1.

I still remember him fielding a bunt and...

doing a little belly-flop on the field and going on the DL for 41 games. I always thought of Washburn as quite a sissy. Thanks for 02 (regular season), glad you left.

(NOTE: Sissy = PG rating, not what I really call him, but the last three letters are correct)
