Today was the first day I decided to let Cinci have a go. That might kill me. Will also hate rooting against verlander tonight. I gotta hope his losing streak in Seattle continues.
In case people were curious, I've been following the stat corrections that yahoo makes and so far they haven't affected the outcome in any of the games (thankfully). I haven't and I don't plan on going back into the spreadsheet to update the scores. It's just too tedious and if it doesn't affect the outcome then that small amount of points should hopefully not affect anything that much.

Good call Matt - I check those too usually, but never bother to say anything if it doesn't affect the outcome. Glad to know you're doing it so I can ignore it unless it is my players!
It serves no purpose IMO. I would guess the average of all pitching scores under the new scoring equal the batting score of a tier 4 player. Maybe tier 3. I would rather get rid of it and open up 2 or 3 more offensive spots.
yes, because what I need is 3 more Royce Claytons in my lineup. :)

I've been all for getting rid of pitching for a long time. I seem to remember Dale being the primary opposition on that point the last time we had this argument though :p I could be wrong about that though.

Hmm, pitchers are baseball players too and this is a baseball pool. Maybe we just have never come up with a decent scoring system for them but I hardly think we need to cut pitching.
