The Players that take the Stitched one every fifth day and go to the Bump with that "Stuff" people can't seem to get a bead on. Whether it is  a 4-Seamer, Cutter, Slide Piece, or Off Speed Stuff with late movement they Whifffff! The Senior Circuit Leaders as we head to Memorial Day 2K13. There are a few new players in the top 10 but most are usual suspects with that Grade A Strikeout Stuff.

Top 10 on the Senior Circuit in K's from the Hill:

Note: Win/Loss Record in Parenthesis

1. A. Burnett #Buccos 79 (3-4)

2. M. Harvey #Amazins 74 (5-0)
    (pictured right)

3. C. Kershaw #BoysInBlue 72 (5-2)

3. J. Samardzija #NorthSiders 72 (2-6)

5. A. Wainright #Redbirds 69 (6-3)

6. M. Bumgarner #Gigantes 63 (4-2)

7. S. Miller #Redbirds 62 (5-3)

7. S. Strasburg #NATitude 62 (2-5)

9. H. Ryu #BoysInBlue 60 (5-2)

10. G. Gonzalez #NATitude 57 (3-2)

10. C. Hamels #PhightinPhils 57 (1-7)

10. L. Lynn #Redbirds 57 (6-1)

Burnett continues to lead by example and now of he can just start heading North in Win Column for the Pirates...

Harvey is "Next in Line" to be the next Amazins Star from the Bump...Excellent Stuff to go with that "It" Factor on the Bump...

Kershaw is a true-Ace in every sense of the Word not to mention his "Stuff' as Dodgers Pitcher Ryu joins him in the Top 10. Now Imagine if they were not a combined 10-4..."Donny Baseball" (Dodgers Skip Don Mattingly) would have been back in Hometown Evansville, Indiana by now.

Samardjiza has shown me something as he has Ace and #1 Stuff as he just has to learn how to Pitch and its that simple..a real live arm. Laugh at the Cubbies if you want to watch what happens in 2014...Lol!

Wainright and Lynn are a Lights Out Winning Time Tested Duo and now throw in Miller who has nice stuff. There is a reason why the Redbirds are always lurking to get to "Fall Classic".

Out of all the Pitchers on that loaded Giants Staff...Madison Bumgarner has the Stuff to get you gone before you reach first base.

Strasburg and Gonzalez...the "Potomac 2-Pack" at it again except in the W-L Column....a combined 5-7...the good thing is we are not out of May yet. Check back regarding these two after the Mid-Summers Classic at Citi Field.

Hamels is paid like a #1 and he is a #1 but that 1-7 record as the teams #1 Arm..Ouch!...If the Phils can get him headed North they might be able to make some noise as they are only 5 1/2 back of the Braves for #1 in the NL East.
