This past week has been an interesting one for pitchers. As many have gone down with injuries (Adam Wainwright, Brandon McCarthy, Homer Bailey, and probably more), many newcomers are in line to make their impact.
We already saw one highly touted prospect pitch for the Nationals, A.J. Cole, only to surrender four runs on nine hits and one walk in two innings against the Braves last Tuesday. As one who loves upcoming pitchers, I added Cole, who has since been sent back to AAA Syracuse, after his spot start for the injured Max Scherzer, and my ratios were dead in the water for week four of the fantasy season.
