Great ERA means great pitcher. BUT, if the ERA isn't as good as who I'm trying to compare to, let me make up some excuses.
I understand your ERA argument, but it is definitely not black and white. Playing on a better defensive team will cut down your ERA as guys chase down hits and throw out would-be runs. K's have to be in the discussion as well.
I do agree that W's and L's are fricking irrelevant.

See, maybe in the bullpen, but I don't measure how good a pitcher is by how many guys they can K.
THIS season who would you rather have?
Player 1:
ERA: 2.22
K: 95
IP: 129 2/3
Player 2:
ERA: 3.12
K: 154
IP: 121 1/3
So, you're telling me because player 2 has more strikeouts that you would rather have a pitcher that has given up almost 1 more run per 9 innings?
