Hah, this is ridiculous.

The Yankees are funny. Well at least the fans can get some more $11 beer.

[JTWood]

15 runs in one inning?

[Eric1285]

Ugh. I saw that Wang was dropped in my league last week. I didn't feel he was worth claiming off waivers so I didn't use my rank on him. Then I saw that he cleared without anyone picking him up, so I got him as a free agent. WHY OH WHY DID I START HIM? The smart thing to do would have been to wait until he got one good start under his belt...but no, I had to be greedy and start him immediately. I've just gone from 2nd to 7th in ERA in my 10 team roto league.

Even if Lincecum pitches a gem for me it's not going to balance out that atrocious start by Wang.

Are they going to let Swish pitch a couple today?

Only a few more games until I get P eligibility from Swish.

[Madison]

anyone else thoroughly disgusted?
or should I be disgusted at myself for starting him?

regardless:

No bench in the league I've got him in.

That whole team of mine is infected though:

With Wang's putrid 34.50 ERA in a roto league

Webb - 13.50 ERA and on the DL
Lester - 9.00 ERA
Joba - 5.06 ERA
Jered Weaver - 3.09 ERA but a 1.54 WHIP!
Maine - 7.20 ERA
Sherrill - 6.23
Lidge - 4.50 ERA

Buehrle, and Kerry Wood have been ok, but my team ERA/WHIP coming into today was:

ERA - 7.14
WHIP - 1.67

And we've got no bench!

[Geek]

I don't know what to do with the guy. Do you drop him under the impression that something is majorly wrong and he won't recover this year, or do you hang on to him, bench him, but then waste a spot on your team? It's a real dilemma.

He's a #5 starter when he's 'good.'

He's not worth a roster spot. He's a turd--flush him.

Well, that should stomp your ticket in next year's Pond Scum.

Well, that should stomp your ticket in next year's Pond Scum.

Actually, I've got 50 out of 60 possible points on the hitting side. If I don't dig too deep a hole on the pitching side and these guys (or I make a good pickup or two) get their heads together, it's far from over.

I'm just worried about digging the hole too deep.

Jeter didn't get injured, did he?
