I think quizzes like this are fun, but I am one of those people that things WAR is one of the silliest numbers ever. I'll take Jack Morris over 90% of these guys any day of the week.

The only guy on this list who did it in 5 consecutive years is Dave Stieb. Go figure!

Yeah, Ehteridge, why go by statistics that measure the full value of a pitcher when you can go by abstract measures like "grit" and "clutchiness."
