I had a brain fart and forgot to take out the Ks when I was calculating the BABIPs. This is going to make the numbers even more stark.

Roy Oswalt. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .400
Brandon Backe. . . . . . . . . . . . .250
Wandy Rodriguez. . . . . . . . . . ..400
Shawn Chacon. . . . . . . . . . . . . .222
Chris Sampson. . . . . . . . . . . . . .240

This is where someone in the audience should scream SAMPLE SIZE. Does anyone honestly believe that Shawn Chacon and Chris Sampson are inherently better at preventing batted balls from becoming hits than Roy Oswalt? These things will even out. I never get too freaked out over individual games unless the pitcher suddenly can't find the plate (a la Dontrelle Willis) or if the K/BB ratios suddenly improve (a la Wandy last year). I am a bit concerned about the K rate as I've said before. However, his K rate has been steadily falling and most prognosticators have been overshooting his ERA for years. At some point they may end up being right. It's not the end of the world with this offense. On most nights he will still win.
