GET LIT UP!

We're back for another week of GET LIT UP! Before we get to this week's fearless predictions, let's see the results from two weeks ago:

Once again, the rules: If a pitcher gets lit up, we get a check mark and you shower us with praise. We think that if a starter ends his outing with an ERA of 6 or higher, that's pretty much getting lit up. As Tony said, "If his stats make you say 'Fuck!'...he got lit up."

1) Phil Hughes @ Orioles 5.2 innings, 1 earned

2) Cliff Lee vs. Rangers 7 innings, 0 earned

3) Yovanni Gallardo @ Padres 7 innings, 1 earned

Bullpen Arsonist - Kevin Gregg 3.1 innings, 0 earned

Wow, what a great job I did for our special April Fool's Day edition of GET LIT UP! Oops.

Current Record: 0-4

My winning percentage can't get any worse, well done. I need some layups, so I'm taking the easy way out and going with three guys on the road. Here goes:

1) Brett Myers, Tuesday @ STL (Because Brett Myers is my homeboy)

2) David Huff, Thursday @ KC (Only in hopes of Greinke getting a W, since old people still care about W/L records)

3) Clayton Kershaw, Saturday @ SD (I had faith in the Fathers at home last time, I'll try it again)

Bullpen Arsonist: Bobby Jenks (Looking for that knockout punch)

And now for a double dose of Gettin' Lit Up, Mr. G7 is making his season debut...

1) Tommy Hanson, @ MIL, v. ARI (Could be great against these two, could get wRecKed)

2) Rick Porcello, v. NYY, v. BOS (Looks like a rough week for the kid, at least on matchups)

3) Javy Vazquez, @DET, v. MIN (His 9.82 ERA might drop after these starts, but he could still suck)

Bullpen Arsonist: Chad Qualls (Assuming he even keeps the job the rest of the week)
