Thursday, July 8, 2010  Starting Pitcher Power Rankings, Part 2
- Go!  This is the part of the post where we make excuses for
how lame the rest of the post is going to be, so here goes: We
were going to take this seriously this week, and break down the
perfomances of Jays starters over the past two weeks. But then
we realized that we're writing up fictional Power Rankings for
our own amusement. Also, pretty much every starter has had a bad
week. So we're kinda making this up as we go.  Now, take heed!
The Power Rankings sayeth:  1. Ricky Romero (Last week: 1) An
ERA of 9.31 in his last two starts, both losses. Five strikeouts
and five walks, 14 hits in 9.2 innings. Yikes. And yet, no one
takes the crown away.  2. Brandon Morrow (Last week: 4) 6.00 ERA
over his last two starts, but a 15/3 K-to-walk ratio augurs well
for the second half.  3. Brett Cecil (Last week: 3) 5.06 ERA
over his last two, but still leaving the ball up and out of the
zone. BABIP of .400 in those starts, so possibly unlucky.  4.
