I am about 20 games into a new season and my pitching staff is getting pummeled. Byrd, Walker and Lidge especially. Byrd, Carrera, Walker, Lidge, Wickman and Downs gave up 17 earned runs, 5 home runs, in the Metrodome.

I am in the Metrodome and there is an RFK stadium, MM Park and US Cellular. The league is generally comprised of hitter’s parks, but the Metrodome should be relatively neutral, right?

I am open to suggestions. This is my fifth team. 3 ongoing and 2 that are done. So far only one of my teams has a winning record.

Any thoughts other than changing fantasy sports.

Thanks

Hang in there. It takes more than 4 or 5 teams to become a good player in this game. True your pitching staff is getting hit hard, but it is way too early in the season to come to any conclusions. And, 3 of your 5 starting pitchers are doing [i:1e6a94e4ea]better[/i:1e6a94e4ea] than expected(ERA's). Garland is not getting hit hard.
