I think that can be said for every staff thus far (except Florida, who have been salid in every game thus far).
And perhaps the Cardinals, who have been uniformly bad.

yeah that complete game by morris was horrible, and the 6 inning 1 run start by Marquis was just pitiful

Well, Morris lowered his era to a respectable 4.20,and Marquis is an incredible 5.56, which is just below the staff era of 5.43. I guess those starts helped a ton, because the rest of the starting staff doesn't have an era under 6.00!

the stats are much worse than the games actually seemed, I followed all of the games, and while the brewers games were horrific, things have settled down a lot, in a couple of weeks I think they will be fine, Williams came back too early, Suppan has only had 1 start, Carpenter had trouble in his first inning back after a couple of years but was fine for most of the game

once the pitching is better they should go on a nice little run, the offense certainly is not having any problems

Yeah, Rolen has been teriffic thus far.

No, I meant this Billy Koch:

2/3 IP, 4 Hits, 4 Runs, 4 ER, 1 Walk, 0 SO, 2 HRs for an 11.25 ERA

for his second blown save this season (though he was only credited with one because he gave up the first 4 runs, but not the tying run last week).
Danny Kolb………Save #3, great news for my fantasy team.

Curtis Leskanic's performance today was not very good for mine…..hello waivers!

I think its about time now to take Affeldt out of the starting lineup where he is getting crushed and put him back at closer. He dominated in that role last year. Leskanic is not the answer and it depends on which McDougal shows up this year.

You're right, but I think that they will give MacDougal a few chances once he gets back in about ten days, unfortunately.
I had McDougal last year and i thought he pitched decent. His ERA was high because he gave up alot of runs in NON save situations. Angel Berrao alone cost him three saves with errors in the ninth inning last year.

Interesting. It was a booted double play ball by 2B Mendy Lopez that cost Leskanic yesterday.
Is there a pattern developing here?
nice pitch pedro…how do you say "most over-rated pitcher in the AL" in Dominican, or whatever language he speaks.

so it is not just music you are an idiot about?
Pedro is a jackass, but i dont think he's overrated. I think his time is finally coming to an end but even a mediocre Pedro is still better than most pitchers. I'm sure if he continues to pitch poorly he'll go to his headhunting tactics like he always does.

You've got to be kidding me. I hate Pedro as much as the next guy, maybe even more. But I think that he could go 9-10 this year and still not be overrated. His numbers speak for themselves.
