It's a question of where you want to draw the line. If you have a 100 point lead and I have, say, four starts in hand on you, then obviously you have the advantage. If you have a 100 point lead and I have 7-8 starts in hand, it's real close. But if you have a 100 point lead, and I have 10 starts in hand, I'd rather be in my position than yours, despite the fact that "yes", I'm "speculating" about how many points I can get with those 10 starts. As far as yesterday goes.... Originally posted by Just Lou:

Just talking about starting pitching here, because I've been breaking down all three categories separately.... Definite advantage yesterday for JG. I got 19 points using four starts, JG got 30 points using three. No way I can make that sound good for me.  There are a few different ways of figuring out what that's worth, but I'll figure that if JG had used four starts also, based on his average he would've gotten about 44 points, so in starting pitching he gained about 25 for the day. A gain which was more than offset by my gain in offense and relief pitching. Anyway, I'll work out a new PL vs. JG projection, with full analysis and all the math sometime before Thursday.

Well, you do have a lead on me, but whether or not I'd call it "huge" is another story.
I have 9 starts in hand. Could wind up being worth more, could wind up being worth less, but based on my FPPG average, let's say those 9 starts are worth 125 points.
I also have an additional 22 games on offense; Let's say those are worth another 75 points.
So if we subtract 200 points from your raw points lead of 355, that puts you up by 155, hardly what I'd call "huge".
Of course, I'm not factoring in relief pitching here.
Based on persformance so far, you figure to gain in that category also, but you never know.
RP is certainly by far the most unpredicatable category of all.
One game like the one Cordero had for JG yesterday can radically alter the whole projection.
Anyway.....
While JL, PL, and JG do all the talking here, the guy who I think is gonna win the whole thing (as long as Liriano and Verlander hold up) is DB.

Pretty funny -- every time Douche proposes a trade to me, he cancels it 10 mins later. Sure saves me time from having to do research on the proposal! :p
