What happens when you read an article like this?
Trevor Hoffman coughed up a 3-run lead to Lance Berkman last night and what do I see on my Fantasy stats the next day? A nice whopping 54.00 ERA and 6.00 WHIP line for Hoffman.
Problem is, I also have Lance Berkman on my team.
And while it's lovely he went 3-5, scored three runs, homered, got three RBI, and a steal, this produces a dilemma.

When a pitcher and batter are both on your team and are squaring off, who do you root for?
We talked about this in my fantasy league the other day and I think you have to root for your pitcher. We all deal with 0-4 type of days from our batters. Their seasons always seem to even out.
I don't know about you guys, but nothing, I mean nothing pisses me off more than when I see a stat line of anything over 27.00 on the ERA from one of my pitchers. It actually ruins my day.
Ever have a pitcher give up nine runs in an inning?
Yeah, that was me last year.
It gives a nice "pound me in the ERA ass" to your whole squad and ill feeling for about a week.
So bottom line, if your boys are facing off? Side with the pitcher.
Speaking of the pitcher—Trevor Hoffman, get your head out of your ass buddy.
