Jeff Neimann- 7.0 IP/ 2 H/ 1 R/ 1 ER/ 1 BB/ 2 K/ 0 HR/ 9 GB/ 40 fantasy pointsDavid Price- 4.1 IP/ 12 H/ 5 R/ 5 ER/ 1 BB/ 4 K/ 1 HR/ 10 GB/ 46 fantasy points
In my opinion, the most glaring weakness in our system is the allowance of GB hits counting as points.
Hits are an issue of the defense behind a pitcher... so it's not quite independent.
In my perfect world, we'd be able to tweak the system so that real-life performance more closely correlates with points scored. Using the before referenced lines for comparison, using the eyeball test, one would assume that Price scored in the negative and Neimann would have posted significantly higher points. We have RP scoring higher points than starters while pitching to 4 batters compared to going 7 strong innings. I am torn between Jake's idea of waiting until the offseason and Aubrey's of doing something ASAP. I can find merit and fault in both schools of thought. I've not yet given enough thought to possible solutions, perhaps I should have before starting this topic. It does appear there are enough people who agree that something is amiss and with the minds we have in this league, I'm confident the brainstorming will strengthen an already great league.
