I was trying to come up with the easiest way for everyone to contribute to the effort to stay on top of pitching developments. Some of you have already offered some possibilities, I know others are thinking about it.

I decided a quick and easy way would be for me to just post at the top of a thread a listing of the pitchers. Then...you could cut and paste all or parts of that into a post that you make yourself. If you want to comment on every pitcher you could. If you just want to point out that so-and-so threw 125 pitches in his last start....or is coming back after a long injury layoff or something...you can just cut and paste that team or that game.

I'll do the same with some of the stat things I uncover. There were only about 4-5 readers yesterday for all the pitching stuff I put together...so I'm not going to go through all of that again. That's too much work for 4-5 readers! I'll log everything on legal paper again for my own use and just pop in with some notes about home/road splits, or other things that seems to be under the radar.

If you're concerned about "giving away an edge" on something you like, take care of business first...then feel free to post the data afterward (just do it before the game starts if you think it will help readers!)

I hope everyone reading this will consider posting a thought or two. Even if you're not a stathead, you may have noticed something when watching a recent game involving one of these pitchers.

Here's the listing that you can cut-and-paste into a post to fit your needs:

Los Angeles Hendrickson:
St. Louis Suppan:

Philadelphia Lidle:
San Francisco Lowry:

New York Glavine:
Chicago Zambrano:

Houston Pettitte:
Florida Johnson:

If you're not sure how to cut and paste....simply highlight the teams or games you want with your cursor...then hit "Control" and "C" on your keyboard simultaneously. That makes a "copy" of the highlighted material in the memory of your computer that you can place somewhere else. In your own reply to this thread...simply start typing then hit "Control" and "V" simultaneiously to place the copied material down.
