Happy O'Sullivan Day!!!

With Sean O'Sullivan starting making his first start here are some things you may know or have mentally repressed.
  • He ended 2010 with three straight quality starts, though with 13 walks and just 7 strikeouts in 18 innings the definition of the word quality is obviously being stretched.
  • Even with those three he still only has 8 career quality starts, that number matches the amount of times he's given up 5+ earned runs in a game. 
  • He's averaged 5.18 innings per start which means Nathan Adcock will get to pitch today.
  • As a starter the league has hit .288/.344/.527 against him, basically the league turns into 1978 Doug DeCinces when he's on the mound.
  • He's made it through 7 innings only twice, and one of those was in his first career start.

9-5's still good, right?
