I mean you weren't wrong -- ERA wise, most of the traditional stuff he was far and away the worst performance last week.

Joe Musgrove of the Padres with a no-hitter thru 7 innings.

I'm just going to say it but, David Fletcher needs to start getting on base. Take an F'n walk you're leading off FFS.

I'm setting the Over/Under on the cumulative dicks sucked at 582.

Pretty remarkable, considering how bad it looked.

With the best FIP...     He got BABIPd to death last week...   

Yep, nothing but singles and BBs, but still K’d 5 in 3.1 innings.

[Angel Oracle]

Saved the late innings guys from pitching tonight, a huge thing.

Would actually make for an interesting poll: Which of the six starting pitchers do guys here have the most and least faith in right now.

[aznhockeyguy]

A starter finally got a win. 

[Erstad Grit]

This team looks great despite Fletcher and Upton kinda sucking and Rendon with zero power. If they can't rolling....

It just means we have yet to peak, and that players will trade off slumps occasionally which means we may never go into any major offensive slumps overall as a whole team (depending on the pitching we face of course).

Oh the locals would most likely pick "Teheran 2.0" as "least", then turn around and talk about how great Teheran 1.0 looks this season .... Because ERA.

Check out Julio's ERA and then look at the predictive stuff.

Yep.  It went really well actually - the only 2 guys who didn't pitch on Thursday were the only two who pitched on Friday, so all of those relievers effectively got a day off.  All 6 of those guys should be available tonight to back-up Quintana.
