Lopez? A relief pitcher who hasn't gone more than 4.2 innings in a game all year making his first start of the season?
I'll be shocked if he pitches more than 5 innings, and then the horrible Baltimore bullpen (without him) takes over.
I AGREE!!!
When musing over the choices yesterday, I thought one could be fooled by the 3-1 record, .33 ERA but upon closer inspection you can see he pitches an average of about 2.5 innings per game and never any more than 4 innings total (enter horrible Baltimore bullpen!).
Ha! Look at the 6th (out of 7) placed person talking strategy. I will have you know though, I ranked just under 25,000 last week and I am just up over 16,000 today. Major improvement for me.
I am coming back. Just a matter of playing "catch-up".....
(Hey, at least I am not a Q-U-I-T-T-E-R!!!)
I have a tendency to wear my heart on my sleeve - I have a history of taking off my shirt.....
