Four Horsemen (baseball)

Article concerns a non-notable neologism. Many teams and groups of players have nicknames. Not all are notable and neither is this. TM 17:36, 21 May 2011 (UTC)

 * I feel that this article should remain, as it is a reference to what ESPN calls the best starting pitching rotation in all of Major League Baseball history, which in the National League, dates 135 years back to 1876. It also alludes to the apocalyptic feeling that may be felt by opposing teams when they see the futility of facing these four vaunted pitchers.  Between the four, there are three Cy Young Awards, a World Series MVP, the second no-hitter in all of MLB postseason history and only the 20th perfect game in MLB history, as well as 13 All-Star Game appearances. ESPN itself used the very term in a Jayson Stark article.  Bill S. (talk) 23:41, 21 May 2011 (UTC)
