[ORGAZMOE]

Mark Buehrle
Freddy Garcia
Jose Contreras
Jon Garland
Brandon McCarthy
Javier Vazquez

Ladies and gentlemen, the sickest, deepest rotation in baseball.

That's 6 #1 or #2 starters in one rotation.

Ladies and gentlemen, the sickest, deepest rotation in baseball.

That's 6 #1 or #2 starters in one rotation.

While its easily the best rotation in baseball, it's not six #1 or #2 starters. Buehrle, Garcia, and Garland all fall into that category...Contreras is still too streaky a pitcher to be considered elite. McCarthy is a super-prospect, but he's got to put together a full major league season. And Vazquez has the talent to be a #1 but he's just flat out been awful the past two season. Maybe he'll turn it around, maybe he won't.

Still, it's the best rotation on the best team in baseball. White Sox should be favorites to repeat at this point.
