Ah, still ahead of the Gnats.

Plus, for the 3.2 IP, 9 ER we now have a much better pitcher!

...

I should probably explain.

See, I fully expect him to throw to about a 3.80 ERA. So just to get there, he now has to throw 17.2 scoreless innings, so that's two automatic wins for the Metsies right there, so that's a 2-1 record from three starts for him, and as far as I know all .667 teams will make the postseason. Yes, we are already at the point of the season where we have to talk the various shortcomings of the staff (like, two good pitchers and a pile of turd) nice just to bear the burden, which requires a certain degree of delusion.

This kind of reasoning is also the way in which I manage the Raccoons, and dare I say, Sir, to great success.

Please don't check out the dynasty thread, for it would expose me as a liar.
