A CUP of JOE in the SHOW report #102....Who can you send to the HILL and you know he will save your BULLPEN...the AL INNING Eaters like PAC-MAN...Gobble Gobble

A Manager knows its a good thing when he can Send a Guy out to the Hill every 4-5 Days and not only can he get a Productive Start but he can get Innings Ate Up. The Pitchers who do this in the Show are much appreciated by their Teammates and the Relievers.

The 2012 AL Innings Leaders is sponsored by staying ahead of the Hitters and getting Productive Outs and keeping yourself out of Jams and Big Innings.  

The Top 15 Innings Leaders in the AL

1. Verlander Tigers 181.2
2. Kid Felix M's  180
3. Vargas M's 176
4. Peavy Pale Hose 168
5. Shields Rays 167.1

6. Kuroda Yanks 167
7. Price Rays 162
8. Masterson Tribe 161.2

12. Colon A's 152
13. Nova Yanks 151.1
14. Chen O's 151

This is why Justin Verlander is Hands down the Overall #1 in the Show. Not only does he lead in Innings Pitched but  #2 in ERA, #1 in K's, and #2 in the AL with Opponents hitting Only .209 against him. With a 2012 Record Only at 12-7 he won't win the Cy Young this Season but he always has to be in that Conversation.
