Yeah overall average run support just think it's amazing the Cleveland bats and bullpen didn't let Lee down more often during that awful stretch. And when I say "unlucky", Halladay has had tougher starts than anybody -- especially on the road. Pitched against Tampa and Boston like 8 times and almost all tight games. Yet he's only lost five more games with a similiar ERA, pitched some real gems at places like Anaheim, and think he could easily be a 20 game winner too.

OK, I realize I'm building a case for Bullring lol

Not trying to take anything away from Lee though. He is the AL winner.
