HUSH Report for Wednesday May 9th



It is time to unveil the inaugural Hump Day HUSH Report.

Definitely a better selection of Starting Pitching to spend your 1300 innings on, but also some pretty quality offensive plays.

Here are the top Hump Day offensive match ups:

A much better selection to risk your innings on then the Tuesday edition

Jaime MoyerArizona7/39 (.179)

Jered WeaverCleveland5/30 (.167)

Pitchers to Avoid:

Today's list includes a future Hall of Famer and some guys who have pitched well this season.

PitcherOpponent H/AB (Avg against)
Greg MadduxAtlanta26/64 (.406)
Paul ByrdAngels12/33 (.364)
Matt MorrisNY Mets5/154 (.357)
Ramon OrtizWhite Sox18/53 (.340)
Gil MecheOakland40/126 (.315)


Things that stick out for this first Hump Day Edition:

1. The 2007 version of the Big Red Machine will be on full throttle in Cincinnati
2. Weather warming, wind blowing, balls leave the yard at Wrigley
3. Bronx bombers tee off on an ailing Robinson Tejeda and Texas Rangers staff
4. The crafty veteran (Jaime Moyer) keeps the young Diamondback hitters in check
5. Braves offense rudely welcomes Greg Maddux back to Atlanta

Best of luck to you all!
