re: Clayton Kershaw stuck out 300 batters this season

Greinke was the better pitcher this year, from the start of the year till the end of the year he was the better pitcher. It isn't lazy, he proved that this year he was better. Now has he been better, no and Kershaw had another great year but Greinke had a better year.

I think you can agrue who had a better year. Both were amazing. Greinke wins by traditional measures (ERA), Kershaw wins by fielding independent measures. Neither method is perfect and tells the whole story. Either way, there is little doubt in my mind that Kershaw is still the better and more talented pitcher going forward.
