This guy says Andy Pettitte's value is "immeasurable" and also urges his readers to go back to a safer time when W-L record was the ultimate measuring stick for pitchers.
It's going to be funny to read what he writes after Pettitte is roughed-up a few times. The Reds had terrible approaches at the plate yesterday.

They looked all psyched out like they did vs Halladay in game 1 of the playoffs. It was disappointing that they again didn't show more poise on the big stage. I am hoping they'll get over thisQuote:

He could have written that article much more quickly.
- Over the course of a career, wins a pretty good measure of pitcher value
- Andy Pettitte is a pretty good pitcher over a long career
- Andy Pettitte has a lot of wins
- Andy Pettitte is pretty valuable.
Done. Though he did forget to mention that Andy Pettitte was awesome at having good hitters on his team. But I wouldn't want to overcomplicate his world.
