Ugh. Brandon Webb is now out until June.

Kuroda on the DL. Carpenter on the DL. Oswalt no wins so far.

Hard to believe my best starters would end up being Maholm, Lohse, Cueto and Galarraga.

Which further illustrates the point that when drafting, pick offense first and supplement starters after the fourth or fifth rounds.

Re: Ugh. Brandon Webb is now out until June.

pheh. My first pick was Halladay. Since everyone valued offense, it meant pitching was undervalued. Know your opponents. I may not win my league, even though I am in 1st place right now, but I am getting a ton of info on some offensive sleepers. My current favorite waiver claim is Asdrubal Cabrera.

But really, you didn't think Carpenter was going to be healthy all year did you? I avoided him like the plague

No way. Carpenter was a late pickup for a spot start.
