Dice K has not gone more than 7 innings since May 10, maybe he is still hurt , maybe not - but if he can't start going 7 innings or more per start how effective can he be when he goes 5 innings and then you need 3 innings or 9 outs from some people before you get to the closer
Look at his ko/bb ratio and tell me they are happy about that, he won games early when the red sox were scoring in bunches
LEster - not avg at all i'll give u that
Wakefield - i guess the best thing you can say about him is he gets you innings
Matterson - too early too tell , but hasn
t gone more than 6
if you have no middle relief you're starters need to be going 7-8 innings
