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?

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?

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.

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

I repeat.... I hate pitchers!

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

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

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.

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.

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