Check out the names on my fantasy baseball pitching staff:

1. Dontrelle Willis - Florida
2. Barry Zito - San Fran
3. Daisuke Matsuzaka - B0 Sox
4. Rich Harden -Oakland
5. Brad Penny - Dodgers
6. Cole Hamels - Phillies
7. Scott Kazmir - Tampa Bay
8. Chad Gaudin - Oakland

All that and I’m in 9th friggin’ place? Seriously, what does it take to bust out of the cellar?

Of course the big names on that list aren’t necessarily having the greatest year. Dontrelle is not the same pitcher this year and old man Zito is living the good life now that he’s making A-Rod money. Harden is always hurt and Kazmir really, won’t have a chance to really shine until he gets traded to a good team. Still, Dice-K, Gaudin, Hamels, and Penny have been fantasy studs.

Still, it feels like that pitch in the nuts.
