Well Jurrjens got me 5 K's though he melted down in the 5th inning and ended with a not so pretty ERA of 5.40. Burnett on the other hand has pitched 5 innings of 1-hit ball with six strikeouts so far and has me within 3 of zap's total. Nice.
I have Carmona up so im praying the Indians can hold the 1-0 lead.

Carmona has been consistently awesome so far, I hope they dont try to stretch him for the CG though. 8 inning is 0 ER is quite sufficient for me

My guess is that they would much rather put a 9th inning 3-run lead in his hands than in Betancourt's. They don't have anyone they can consistently count on to close out games. I don't know what the pitch count situation is like though.

Thats what I am afraid of. Im desperately awaiting Joe Borowski's return to the closer spot, I was counting on him to have another solid season.

Another solid season? Borowski might rack up saves but his ERA and WHIP are a joke and will hurt your team.

Ya know what I like? 13 innings of 4.25 ERA by the team just behind me in ERA. You may catch me in Ks today but I will have billions more innings left than you.

Hmm I looked back at my emails and you're right it was Uggla...who has now homered 8 times in the first 12 days of May.

Damn he is currently 45 innings behind the season prediction
Is there a reason why either one of you dont try to stay close to the innings pitched mark?

Yes. It's a long season. We don't sweat. Which is why I have Jermaine Dye and he has Robinson Cano.

By the way, if you were so desperately seeking closers, how come you didn't knock at my door?

didnt think I had anything you'd be interested in. Matt and I got pretty close to doing Brandon Lyon + Vald Garrerro for Matt Holiday. I just couldnt bring myself to get rid of a key piece of my offense. I picked up Rausch today from the Nats, I have him in my other league and hes been decent.

You turned down this trade with Holliday Phillips, Rios, and Adrian Gonzalez (and Rafael Soriano, since injured)for Fielder, Holliday and Cano.
Dumbass. I was a dumbass for offering it but that was a lifetime ago. Don't fall in love with your players. They are tools, nothing more.

You dont have any players on your team that you view as not being expendable? I think Matt Holiday is going to have a ridiculous season and I cant put a value on him, I did take him with my 1st round pick for a reason. Ya dont trade away the franchise

Franchises are built on personalities and playing styles as much as numbers, but fantasy teams are built on numbers - that's it. There's always a trade worth making for any player.

Oh yeah, Rausch and Lyon blow chunks. All 4 of my closers (Smoltz, when he gets back) are better than those two mutts.
