Sure, 5-6 games each, but it's still a remarkable disaster for all three to be this bad this early. Each has only served up one start with under 4 ERs.

One of the best pitchers in my league right now (not my player) is a LIVE Garret Crotchet, pitching a 2.5 ERA in 5 starts. Talk about another miracle for some lucky team...imagine the series of dice rolls this card has to have gotten? The guy has a PBABIP of 66! This team has Vance, Chandler, Sale, Stieb, and Crochet, and that team has the #1 ERA and #5 pWAR in my league, and he's rolling with Dickey and Piazza as catchers. I mean, I hope this guy bought a lottery ticket tonight...

And my Sutcliffe, Sheets, or Fernandez can barely squeak out one game with 3 runs or less...I can't even anymore.

At this point, can we all just agree we're actually playing Yahtzee rather than OOTP with this year's PT, and the names are just scribbles on a screen?

It's Monday. Slow your roll, bud.


Also, what strategies/sliders do you have on your pitchers? What's your defense looking like? Are they getting BABIP'd to death?
