Just doing some research and stumbled upon Josh Collmenter. Anyone know if he is as good as the stats he's thrown up so far? Very intriguing

In my humble opinion, he isn't. Still, I'm the guy who dropped Ogando and started Vazquez, so what the hell do I know?

Based upon what I've read, I didn't think he was worth a bid. Although my SP has been poor so far, 5 of my 7 reserve spots are pitchers so he also just didn't fit into my current team structure.

He has an unusual delivery, which is why some call him a gimmick pitcher.

Read this for a little background:

Looks like he might have a starting gig in Arizona now. That, plus a need for some SP depth with K potential is why I took a flyer on him this week. Who knows, he might fool some big leaguers for a little while...

Then again, I now see Gekko posted this before five, so my guess is he might have found out something wrong about him that I have missed....
