MLB Betting – My List Of The Top Starting Pitchers of 2011
When I recently discussed the top closers of 2011, I didn’t just look to saves. I wanted a more accurate measure of skill, so I went with save percentage.

In football it’s interesting and unique to have a left-handed quarterback, like Boomer Esiason or Kenny Stabler. The same thing is true in basketball. It doesn’t make any difference if an ace point guard dribbles the ball primarily with his left hand, or a pivot man shoots left handed.
Closers may be popular commodities in fantasy baseball, but they’re often taken for granted in MLB betting circles. After all, most of our bets have to focus on starting pitchers, as we can’t predict when stoppers will be called upon to close out a game.
