I'm in a standard 5x5 14-person keeper league, and one of the owners did not draft a single starting pitcher.
He kept 3 closers, drafted a few more closers, and then filled in the rest of his pitchers with setup guys or middle relievers with good ERA and WHIP stats (J.P. Howell, J.J. Putz, Hong-Chih Kuo).
So, he is basically punting wins and strikeouts, in hopes of leading the league in saves, ERA, and WHIP.
Has anyone ever seen this strategy employed? Was it a total disaster? I can't imagine this strategy working out for him.
