    What can you do but laugh???

    My league has two owners who are pretty clueless...

    One owner has almost 100 LESS IP than my team and has one MORE win than my pitching staff.

    The other owner hasn't been on the league site since April 30 and his team has 10 more wins than mine.

    Too bad Trout can't pitch!!

    I don't have the exact figures handy, but this is close - 5 or 6 years ago I was right on the league average in IP, ERA, and Ratio for the season - and I won only 48 games!

    This year my aces are Bumgarner and Hamels.

    What is this W category you speak of? I do have 13 of them....
    finished 10th in this 37th yr in 11-team-only NL 5x5
    own picks 1, 2, 5, 6, 9 in April 2022 1st-rd farmhand draft

                  Stomp! hanging in with 14 wins, dead last in that cat. Still, 5th in standings with overall very solid hitting. If Cueto, Hamels, Edwin Jackson, Lohse pick it up I can be a contender. If not, well fickle wins gone done did me in, as they say in Kentucky.

                    Yeah, I'm stuck at 15 wins in my AL-only league. Part of it is that my pitching staff is mediocre, part of it is that the Royals hate James Shields. I'm 7 wins away from even being tied for 9th
