Overmatched?

[Gon_Trevil]

Heading into the championship, I think things are not looking so good for my team. The other guy just has a much better O' than mine. Do I have a shot at this?

12 teams. Standard 5x5 scoring. No limit for pitching starts or innings pitched.

My team:

C Mauer
1B Hafner
2B Barmes
SS Peralta
3B Ernsberg
OF Manny, Crawford, Sizemore
Util R. Howard (rookie from Phil)
BN Polanco

SP Johan, Pedro, Beckett, Colon, Patterson, Felix Hernandez
RP T. Jones, Farnsworth, F. Rodney, R. Dempster, B. Fuentes

His team:

C Varitek
1B Ortiz
2B T. Walker
SS Eckstein
3B Glaus
OF Bay, Dunn, S. Green
Util Konerko
BN Giambi, Winn

SP R. Johnson, Zito, D. Wells, Bonderman, Garland, J. Blanton
RP Isringhausen, M. Batista, Turnbow, D. Sanchez

My hurlers are clearly superior, but his abundance of sluggers might be my doom. Taking 4 points (or a clean sweep) in pitching might be my only shot.

I like your chances. Should be a close matchup though.

Drop Barmes for Mark Ellis. You're going to have issues with Ensberg, he's been great all season but he's died lately. You're not going to win in HR with all those hitters he has, so go for runs and average.
