How do I love my pitching?
Let me count the ways.
1) My bullpen kicks so much ass - The Bulls are currently sporting a 2.78 bullpen ERA, with all four of my main relievers mowing down the opposition this year:
Code:
Innings ERA WHIP BB K
Nestor Suarez 90.0 2.80 1.13 12 59
Juan Sevilla 73.0 2.84 1.07 12 59
Damario Poso 56.7 2.70 1.11 5 42
Will Gagus 20.3 2.21 0.79 1 17
Those four combined have a 177:30 strikeout-to-walk ratio, almost 6:1.
2) John Ross Riles, Jr. is a f**king horse - Dude has thrown 289 innings this year. 20 wins, 2.58 ERA, 1.01 WHIP, 267 strikeouts. He's going to be a rich, rich man come free agency.
3) My rookies rule -
John Mark Niednagel is 8-5 with a 3.55 ERA and 1.17 WHIP in 106.3 innings.
Dale Spivey has a 3.03 ERA, 0.98 WHIP, and an 18:1 strikeout-to-walk ratio. Hell, even
Esequiel Mejia has pitched reasonably well for an emergency fifth starter and long reliever: 4.41 ERA and a 7:1 strikeout-to-walk ratio in 65.3 innings.
4) My apartment smells of rich mahogany -
Papa Burgundy has allowed five home runs in 190.6 innings. Awesome.
