Who the hell is tyler clippard?
Strasburg comes up in June so the pitching will automatically get better then.
I guess you could say they are for real, but they wont be able to make the playoffs out of that division this year.

Clippard leads the league in wins. I was lucky enough to pick him up a couple weeks ago in one fantasy league and he now leads my team in wins, and my pitching staff includes Greinke, Nolasco, and Hanson. I hate the wins category.

I was encouraged by Papelbon early in the season, he started throwing a bunch of splitters and looked like he was going to be really dominant. Last night I counted one and he completely fooled Cano with it, other than that it was one fastball after another right down the middle. If he wasn't such an arrogant **** maybe he wouldn't try and blow it by everyone.

Oh My God. Then on the way home, Cedeno, the second pirate of the night sliding into first, is out. They can't afford to do the little things wrong, unbelievable.

Yeah his value is so much greater as a catcher. But I hear a lot of people saying they will move him to save his knees/prolong his career.
