Yep, he looked absolutely unbelievable tonight. He pitched around 115 pitches I believe, and didn't show ANY signs of fatigue. He retired the last 15 batters he faced.

The real question is whether Randy can stay healthy. Dude has no cartilage in his knee. So while I'd be happy tonight if I were a Randy owner, I'd be keeping my fingers crossed that he stays healthy.

He has fluid in his knee taking the place of cartilage....I'm not too worried, the reason for the surgery was to PREVENT a season/career ending injury. He said he may need to miss a start or two here or there after actually receiving the periodic injections, but that should be all he misses.

Agreed.
I avoided him this year knowing full well I'd miss a few outings like this. The concern is that over time that knee just won't hold up.
Randy Johnson is a freak and always will be one. He is starting to look old and wrinkly, but he was still throwing mid 90's in the 90th inning. Randy was having some mechanical problems after the knee surgery causing some wildness, but if tonight is any indication, it looks like he might have fixed that problem.
