I finally made a tweak that paid off: on Friday morning I sent Lee Smith to the reserves and recalled John Smoltz and placed him as stopper 7th and close game. The result was 50 wins in the last 54 games which included 2 16 game winning streaks and 1 of 12. I'm not making any changes for the playoffs! (Except to go down to 4 starters). Cy Young did win the triple crown by 5 K's, although he plays second fiddle to Cy Young in the other conference who was better in every way. Oddly, Walter Johnson has better WAR than Cy Young, go figure.... Cy Young was even the better fielder.
