Somewhat agree

But..

Many teams are put together with a good double play combination because of the ground ball pitchers on the team. A pitcher like Halladay or Hudson, with a bigger ratio, is going to be affected more because they rely on double plays.

I will not agree that it is just dumb luck that in one league I have Hudson, Mulder, and Halladay and their ERAs are 4.30, 6.85, and 8.30, respectively. I could understand these if they had played games in Coors field, but so far they have played in TB, NYA, and HSN. Houston is a hitter park, but the other 2 are below average for runs.

Anyway you slice it, this season is greatly affected by this "glitch". I think it is very unfair to all owners involved.
