With Johan and Krod on this team, are we witnessing history as Mets fans?
When was the last time we had a dominant SP and Closer in the same season?
Lets take a look:
2009:
Johan: 1.50 ERA 
1990:
Viola: 2.67 ERA 20-12
1988:
Cone: 2.22 ERA 20-3(Sometimes I forget how good he was)
McDowell: 2.63 ERA 16 saves 
1986:
Really a combination of starters doing very well as well as bullpen. No one was clearly better in the rotation or pen.
1985:
Gooden: 1.53 ERA 24-4 (unbelievable)
McDowell: 2.83 ERA 17 saves
1984:
Gooden: 2.60 ERA 17-9
Orosco: 2.59 ERA 31 saves 
1975:
Seaver: 2.38 ERA 22-9 
1972:
Seaver: 2.92 ERA 21-12
1971:
Seaver: 1.76 ERA 20-10
Frisella: 1.99 ERA 12 saves (90 innings) 
1969:
Seaver: 2.21 ERA 25-7
In my opinion you the 1969 season was the most dominant season by a combination 1 SP and 1 CL. Will we see history this year? All I can say that there is no doubt that right now I feel more comfortable in these two pitchers than any two in my Mets fan-hood. To that, I say thank you to Omar. You may screw a lot up, but you got that one right.
