Object Lesson - chasing wins
Adding one more voice to the futility of chasing wins ... in the last 24 hours, in a weekly transaction league, I have had 4 pitchers (Ely, Monasterios, Jackson and Kenrdricks) throw a total of 28 innings - during that span, they gave up a total of 11 hits, 7 walks .... and ONE run (earned) ... and the sum total of ZERO wins amongst them. A total equaling 3+ complete games ...with one run allowed ... and no wins to show for it.
These are my views based on my own opinions and observations - your mileage may vary.

Re: Object Lesson - chasing wins
On Tuesday alone I had Haren (0 ER, no decision), Hammel (1 ER, no decision) Bonderman x 2 leagues (3 ER, lost 3-2), and Lilly (3 ER, lost 3-2). All the starts were either won by the bullpen or losses by one run. 38.1 IP, 2.34 ERA, 0 W. It's frustrating, but the ERA and WHIP are a nice consolation. Really makes you want to slap the guys that have Clippard and Marshall though, doesn't it?

Catchers are like prostate exams -- comes a time where you can't put if off any longer, so you may as well get it over with and take it up the butt - The Forum Funklord

You know you have to seek therapy when you see one of your pitchers had a bad night and it takes you 15 minutes to find the team you have him on. - The Forum Funklord
