Carlos Zambrano concerns for 2009
February 15th, 2009
Continuing to look at pitchers who may or may not end up being injured is Carlos Zambrano. Zambrano is an interesting case partly because he may simply be detoriating at an accelerated pace or he could still be dealing with the shoulder problems that bit him last year.
I asked Troy, my friend and lead writer/owner of RotoSavants.com to help out with the statistical analysis of Carlos Zambrano and this is what he came up with.
Carlos Zambrano has been greatly over valued the past few seasons and if anyone is expecting a repeat of 2004 they will be greatly disappointed. Zambrano was extremely lucky in 2004, but has also had declining components since 2005. He has some interesting ratios though and lets take a look at what to expect in 2009.

Like I said before, my friend Troy is able to explain strategy much more clearly than I can. He has been invited to produce small videos to help explain his strategies on Videodraftkit.com. It’s based on proven poker training videos so it should really help you during your draft. I recommend it, I enjoyed the videos that I looked at.

- Selective Streaming September 1, 2010For those of you who haven't listened to the last podcast first of all you should, but my topic was selective streaming. To follow up with that advice I wanted to start giving regular updates on whom to target for streaming. First, the list that I targeted on the show, based on widely available pitchers with K/9 around 6.5 or greater.Brandon MorrowJho […]Aaron Murray
- Roto Rundowns #16 - I Stream, You Stream... August 31, 2010Streaming pitchers is like fouling at the end of a basketball game; some people hate it, some love it. But no matter how you feel about the practice it's important not only to know when to stream and when not to but also who to stream and who not to. If you were waiting for the show in which I finally break down and give a list of players to target, […]Aaron Murray
- We've Still Got a Long Way to go, People August 29, 2010Take a look at a couple of pitchers currently available in more than half of Yahoo leagues,Pitcher A: K/9 7.86, BB/9 4.12Pitcher B: K/9 9.62, BB/9 4.24 Who would you rather own in a fantasy league? The first pitcher is Dice-K, started in 42% of leagues, the second in Joulys Chacin, started in just 7%. That's right, a guy with better than a K/inning an […]Aaron Murray
- Maximizing Scherzer August 27, 2010In his first eight starts this year Max Scherzer posted such poor numbers that he was sent down to AAA to work on his mechanics. His fastball had lost something and a break from the majors was in order, at least, that was the party line from the Tigers. And in this case it appears to have been correct. Scherzer's average fast ball before being sent d […]Aaron Murray
- Nine more Appearances and He'll be Outfielder Eligible August 25, 2010Like many, I'm a sucker for the oddities of baseball. Give me a highlight real of balks and inside the park home runs over grand slams and strikeouts any day. That's why, when I heard about Roy Oswalt's game last night I found all the video I could about it. To recap, in the 14th inning of a tie game Ryan Howard was ejected for arguing a ch […]Aaron Murray
