Pitcher meltdowns today......

Crazy Like a Fox · Post by **Crazy Like a Fox** » Tue May 04, 2010 4:39 pm

Scott Feldman - 4 innings - 10 hits - 7 earned

Clayton Kershaw - 1.1 innings - 5 hits - 7 earned

Gavin Floyd - 6 innings - 13 hits - 6 earned

I'm glad none of them are on my team. Especially Kershaw. Brutal.

Floyd is killing me right now

It's been a brutal couple of weeks pitching wise. Edwin Jackson, Norris and most notably Johan Santana and so many others have gotten just hammered!

I'm glad none of them are on my team. Especially Kershaw. Brutal. What do all of these things have in common? They're all players who pitched way over their heads last season. I am a believer in the Karmic correction. What we saw with Cole Hamels last year. He pitched over his head for a couple seasons and then had a year that was way worse than it should have been to make up for it.

I think people get blinded by Kershaw's power (which is legit). The fact that he can't hit the broad side of a barn and that he had one of the luckiest home run rates in recent years was bound to catch up with him. It usually does.

Any Randy Wells owners out there?

Hawk · Post by **Hawk** » Thu May 06, 2010 4:21 pm

Not a Wells owner but I'd like a refund on Scott Kazmir please. Thanks. :rolleyes:

Beckett's a POS right now as well.

Concur McSwagger...and he jacked up Cano's knee no less.

Other than Lincecum, Halladay and Ubaldo, consistency from the top line pitchers this year as been suspect at best. Love carrying 4.5+ ERAs and 1.4+ WHIPs on my teams....

Felix Hernandez knocked around pretty good tonight. DL stint coming up?

Wells owner here, as well as a Derek Lowe owner...ouch.

Stupidity is...having Bonderman on your roster as I do.

Luck is...a rain-out in Detroit.

I have Lowe, too, but had him on my bench because Bonderman was pitching against Cleveland.

Luck counts.

I hate pitchers. Fantasy Baseball should be changed to only include the five offensive categories.

Frozen Tundra · Post by **Frozen Tundra** » Fri May 14, 2010 12:39 pm

You suck I have Harden AND Cecil going in my St. Louis main league. uh oh

Glenneration X · Post by **Glenneration X** » Fri May 14, 2010 12:51 pm

I have both these suckasses (Scherzer & Harden) on multiple teams.

Throw in Cecil & I have the trifecta of sucktitude going tonight.

I repeat.... I hate pitchers!

I had enough of Scherzer and sat him this week. He's clearly broken. Almost certainly injured.

Frozen Tundra · Post by **Frozen Tundra** » Fri May 14, 2010 12:59 pm

with Cecil...you should have seen this coming

I posted something in his thread (yeah, he's got his own thread)

Started even better last year in his first 3 starts and pretty much sucked the rest of the way

What makes me mad is that Harden is being spotted an 8+ run and is not gonna make it to 5 innings....no way he makes it to three

glad to see I am in good company with my Cecil frustration tonight

rkulaski · Post by **rkulaski** » Fri May 14, 2010 3:02 pm

Harden having a miserable year but was there much to like this year- an injury prone pitcher moving to Texas? Scherzer settled down tonight but something is definitely wrong with him.

Frozen Tundra · Post by **Frozen Tundra** » Fri May 14, 2010 3:29 pm

You are fkin out, fkin Rich Harden. It's better to correct major draft mistakes early than to let em bury you. I certainly have no use for a pitcher with Ollie Perez-like control, despite the strikeouts and good offense. As the weather in Texas gets hotter, so will the frustration of whoever holds on to this dud.

So long, sucker. Gotta ask Ubaldo tomorrow to make amends for your horrible line.

whipsaw · Post by **whipsaw** » Sat May 15, 2010 1:43 pm

Tommy Hanson anyone? Pretty unlucky giving up all those two out hits but those 5 ER aren't helping me now...
