That's not accurate. Cuba finished in 4th place in 1959 Pan American Games behind Venezuela, Puerto Rico y USA. Also Cuba finished 4th in 1962 Central American and Caribbean Games, this time behind Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico and Mexico.

Plus we having Hughes/Kennedy waiting in the minors gives us very good depth (mostly provided by Hughes, Kennedy...not so much).

Definitely, Sabathia is much better than Beckett. Best pitchers in the East are probably: Sabathia Lester Then it's tough. Heh. Definitely, Sabathia is much better than Beckett.
