9 starts, 61 IP, 11 earned runs, 51 k's, 1.11 whip.....0 and fuckin' 4 record.

Seems almost impossible that you could start 9 games only give up 3 runs once and the rest were all 2 runs and under and you are winless on the year.

As we all know, wins is a crappy way to measure a pitcher.
 
Wins are a product of run support. He's not getting any.

Scherzer was unbeaten a long time last year, but look through the game logs and you'll see the offense carried him in many of those games.

Still, you have to feel bad for the guy.
 
Jim Northrup told a story on air once. Lolich was not getting any run support. So, Northrup told him to hit a home run and pitch a shutout.
 
Cubs lost again the other day and he pitched 7 scoreless innings. His era is now down to 1.46.
