SP's:

Zack Greinke, Javier Vazquez, Jon Lester, Jonathon Sanchez, Ricky Nolasco...nice job. 0 Wins and a combined ERA over 6.00.

RP's:

Trevor Hoffman, Frank Francisco, Mike Gonzalez, even better job! ERA in the 13.00's and 6 blown saves combined.

1 in WHIP, 1 in ERA for my team!

ARod - 0 HR
Tulo - 0 HR
Prince - 0 HR

frustrating. Add to that J.Up is struggling, and my team is hurting.

Also, my rotation is struggling: Galladro, Hamels, Peavy, ouch...

dude...I mean...you mean... what DO you mean? You need a save opportunity for a save. How exactly would you like him to be used?

Moving on. Montero's injury really pisses me off. I had very high hopes for him, reached in a draft on both my teams, bet a friend that he'd out-produce Weiters and now I'm left with Clement and some other bum I scavenged from the wire.

I know (now I know, didn't before) that Lester is a slow starter. He's been getting shelled and I drafted him as my SP2.

Unlike Lester who I feel confident will be just fine, I have Wandy, who looks flaccid.

Carlos Lee is pissing me right off.

DL'd: Brian Roberts, Montero, Chris Young

+1 on the Miguel Montero.

Pretty frustrating my SB threat (Rajai Davis) has more homers (1) than Prince Fielder, Jayson Werth, Ben Zobrist, Josh Hamilton, and Chris Davis, all drafted as my power sources.

Montero, Kinsler (I drafted myself into this one, but still is frustrating), Rollins.
Jay Bruce, Josh Johnson and their bad starts.
Dusty Baker's inability to put players who get on base in front of Joey Votto, as of today 4( :-t ) ABs with RISP.
