Statistacally Speaking: The Replacement Pitchers

Well...Stein and Gottehrer were doing a terrib....Oh (hits the fan)...the latest from Sean Smith.

The Orioles have done extremely well with replacement starters, both Guthrie and Brian Burres. Its a bright spot for an otherwise brutal team.

The Yankees had more replacement level starts (21) than any other team. That’s almost 1/3 of their games so far. Since Phillip Hughes (top 100) and Roger Clemens don’t count, they have had to replace pitchers they were counting on with Tyler Clippard, Darrell Rasner, Matt Desalvo, Chase Wright, and Jeff Karstens. That group put up a collective 6.15 ERA.
