Title: Krukow vs Reuschel
Post by: Polish Rifle on 12/24/07, 05:24:16 AM
Who's better? 

This debate has come up because my league is drafting and there is a lot of buzz about these pitchers.  A lot of owners seem to like that Reuschel can curve both ways and come in on right-handed batters while Krukow isn't that great against righties? 


Thoughts...

They are both awesome. It's like picking between Brady and Montana....or Olivial Newton John or Fegie.

Agreed.  It isn't even close.  I'm a big fan of Big Daddy but Krukow's curve and drop is just too hard to top. He's one of my favorite pitchers. It's shame he isn't a lefty.  And that he isn't Tudor.

Aren't Krukow and Valenzuela essentially the same player?

Krukow CL 12 CR 7 DR 11
Valenzuela CL 12 CR 8 DR 10


I know they both throw with opposite hands, but does that effect their curve?

i think krukows best pitch starts outside and curves in (sometimes curving back out), and valenzuelas best pitch starts inside and curves out

Krukow takes mastery, because I over-curve the fuck out of pitches when I use him.  Often results in meatballs and hitting the batters.  I lack skill and therefore would rather pitch with Big Daddy with my life on the line.  If I was skilled at curve, then Krukow by a longshot...

Definitely Krokow.
I wouldn't even have to think about that one.

I would pick at least a dozen Starting pitchers before Reuschel.

Reuschel does have a cooler nickname, though

I voted for Krukow, but currently, in our Spring Training (Ellensburg RBI league), I'm loving how Reuschel can come inside on right handers when he's TV Right and Krukow can't.  I think Reuschel is the better of the two when facing righties.

I love Reuschel and I think he is a top 4 pitcher in the game. He has sick movement that can be harnessed.

This puhl reminds me of a Robbie Dupree vs Michael McDonald puhl in some 80's forum.

I prefer Krukow just because I usually use him first in 2SP and then it takes a batter or 2 for me to adjust to Big Daddy, but I think they are close
