Which team has the best starting pitching in baseball?

Boston Red Sox ...... 25%
Arizona Diamondbacks ...... 19%
Detroit Tigers ...... 17%
Seattle Mariners ...... 8%
New York Mets ...... 7%
San Diego Padres ...... 6%
Cleveland Indians ...... 5%
Los Angles Angels ...... 4%
Toronto Blue Jays ...... 3%
LA Dodgers ...... 3% 

[Based on a survey of 495 MLB players]

FAST FACTS: Players couldn't vote for their own team.... Through Sunday, Boston's Daisuke Matsuzaka was 6–0 with a 2.45 ERA; Brandon Webb led Arizona at 8–0, 2.41...... The Tigers (first) and the Red Sox (third) were in last week's poll on which team had baseball's best lineup...... The A's, who led baseball with a 3.29 ERA, were not among the 16 teams to get a vote.

This is an expanded version of the MLB poll from the May 19, 2008 issue of Sports Illustrated.

Tigers vote actually surprised me!

When was this poll done? December?
Ask Toronto and Oakland who has the best starting pitching in the league. If this poll was taken right now, i think Cleveland would get a lot more than 5% of the vote...(0.16 ERA on this homestand!)
