i think you call it the polygarethimem(???????? )theory.okay...dont know how to spell it.i read alot of gloom and doom people on this board.i am wondering if you should be that pessimistic right off. yes our starters are probably 6th in our division.but our offense should be as of now 1 or 2...you would think.
last season we had
milton with 6+ era
hudson 6+
ortiz 5.38
barring no trades in 06 if these guys at least equal last season or in miltons case his normal career era avg , you would have
harang 3.8
claussen 4.2
williams 4.4
milton lets say he gets it down to 4.7
say start #5 has a 5.10 era
i doubt hudson will be #5.ortiz and graves (7+era) now elsewhere.
if our above rotation could "at the least" equal those #'s.....can you that do the poly.....thing figure out how things may look.
i remind people with a #1or #2 offense those #'s might not be that bad tho milton will have to step it up a little.
