Jon Lester vs. John Tudor

by admin — published on July 31st, 2008

I thought Tudor was amazing. Jon Lester reminds me of him. I was wondering if you ever faced Tudor & if you saw any comparison.

I don’t see the comparison. I don’t remember John Tudor throwing 92-94mph the way that Jon Lester does. Tudor was more of a finesse pitcher. I don’t think I ever faced Tudor, but just like any lefty, If I faced him I probably would have taken him deep.I would compare Jon Lester to Bruce Hurst.  Like Hurst, Lester throws harder than Tudor did, has the height, and throws pretty good curveball.

    In 2 years John Lester will be a 20 game winner. When it is all said and done he may be the best lefty the Sox ever had. His stuff is that electric.
