I only had a few minutes to go over the box scores this morning as I was chomping down on my gourmet breakfast of "Chocolate Frosted Sugar Bombs", but if my count was right, there were as many as twelve pitchers last night who pitched anywhere from 5.3 to 9.0 IP and gave up between 0 and 2 ER but who did not get Wins out of the equation. For those owners, I guess we (I had three of them) have to be happy with our ERA, WHIP and K contributions.



That sentiment can be said for my week so far. Seven starts, 45.3 IP, 13 ER, 2.581 ERA, 1.059 WHIP, 30 K (3:1 K/BB ratio) with a W-L-ND record of 1-2-4. Nice. :rolleyes:

Ain't that the truth. Weird day. Yesterday in Chicago auction we had 6 starting pitchers going: Haren, Dice-K, Shields, Byrd, Vargas & Bergmann, and here was their totals: 42.1 IP, 1.488 ERA, .898 Whip, 29 K's. Only 1 win out of all that.

Amen to that. Had Bedard and Shields in Main Event and Ultimate, pitching against each other, 16 innings, zero runs and ZERO wins:--((
