One counting statistic that does not get as much notice in Benchwarmer Baseball as it does in MLB is wins by the starting pitchers. Everyone who watches baseball can probably tell you how may wins Cliff Lee had last year (22), but Benchwarmer Baseball managers assuredly cannot recount who had the most BWB Wins in 2008. It is interesting to see the differences in wins for pitchers when they are playing for a Benchwarmer team:
Name / Team / W
Johan Santana / Oaxaca / 21
Edinson Volquez / Springfield / 19
C.C. Sabathia / Las Vegas / 18
Tim Lincecum / Seattle / 18
Danny Haren / Seattle / 17
Cole Hamels / Oaxaca / 17
Jacob Peavy / Boar's / 16
Roy Oswalt / Boar's / 15
Josh Beckett / Las Vegas / 15
Cliff Lee / Oklahoma / 15
Jon Lester / Seattle / 15
Mark Buehrle / Las Vegas / 15
Ervin Santana / San Diego / 15
Roy Halladay / San Francisco / 14
Jered Weaver / Nordeast / 14
Ryan Dempster / Nordeast / 13
Chad Billingsley / Oklahoma / 13
Rich Harden / Boar's / 13
Javier Vazquez / New Orleans / 13
Brandon Webb / Leucadia / 13
The pitcher that stands out the most to me is Cliff Lee at only 15 wins. Run support in Cleveland must have been significantly better than what he received for Oklahoma (not that 15 wins is anything to sneeze at).
