Just a few hundred. The difference between 1st and 3rd is probably going to be ratios, right now the ERA differential between 1 and 4 is 0.02 and the differential between 1 and 5 in WHIP is .015, I'm currently 3rd and 4th respectively, but also have the least amount of innings among all of them.
I'm right on pace to max out my innings by year's end and with my army of starter's (dropped just about all of my bench bats), so I don't foresee hitting it being an issue. Just trying to be selective about who to start and when. Max, Fister, Arrieta, Ross, and Alvarez start just about every time out (standard no Colorado rule though), but I'm trying to be selective with Wada, Fiers, Lackey, Hendricks, Hahn, McCarthy, and based on his recent play Gio too. Peavy and Shoemaker are there too, but I haven't used either of them yet. May start deploying Shoe, but Peavy is really just there for the barrage of San Diego at the end of the season. Considering tossing him out there at home vs. Colorado next week if he does well tomorrow though.
What makes you say that? Just curious if that has been mentioned somewhere. I hadn't read that anywhere, and Nelson seems to be pitching pretty well.
I did, you and eephus helped me not over think it.
I'm keeping a watchful eye, but as of right now Nelson is in line for two starts next week, one @ San Diego. Huge for H2H.
I'd love to, but DeGrom will most likely be scooped up by then, with his start coming Saturday. I think I'm just going to ride the Nelson train, and if he does get shut down, I'll find an alternative.

depends on your trust level of Beltran's elbow and Cuddyer's everything.Blackmon is much safer than Vargas so which one there probably depends on your team. Do you need stability or a dice roll? Vargas is hitting the #### out of the ball when he hits it, but too many k's and is having issues vs lefties,
well its weekly h2h and the championship is two weeks which would worry me starting the two old dudes although when they hit they rake. Im the #1 overall seed and have a bye next week. Ill stick with blackmon but then my last lineup spot will be between the two old men or pickup vargas.
hes been terrible lately, but really wasn't that bad until then. Got a home stand coming up too.
For christ's sake. Are you ever right about anything? Unless, of course coming up means 8 days from now.
he did say that
looks like limp wasnt the one reading the thread this time.
yeah made my decision easy. Still contemplating vargas but i think ill sit tight with what i have.Another question, im desperate for double starts in two weeks. I have none. Yeah i hate weekly leagues but its the hand i was dealt. I have a 10 game winning streak and a 16-4 record. And what do i get for the great year? A bye week this week and ZERO double starts the next week. I dont know how it worked out like that. Anyway, im gonna have to at least pick up one scrub just to compete in starts.
was it known that he had a bone spur this season? The report today says he's been dealing with it since spring training.
Bummed that I didn't grab him for next week. But Hammel looked pretty good yesterday after an extended break to work on his mechanics and such.
my opponent is starting
ickey @TB, @BOS
santana faces buchanan, arrieta vs gallardo, norris vs latos and hellickson. Greene vs kelly, ventura, shoemaker vs nolasco
given the available options tough to argue against this. I like Santana and Shoe, but more than two start arms?
If it makes you feel better, I'm starting Eric O'Flaherty, Dustin Ackley, and something called an "Ender Inciarte."shadyridr said:
