WHO's NOT - PITCHERS
 Over the last 14 days 

1. UBALDO JIMENEZ COL, has been lights out this year but has posted an ERA of 4.58 with a 1.53 WHIP while picking up 2 Wins in the last 14 days.
2. MIKE PELFREY NYM – Mets new ace Mike Pelfrey had a tough couple starts as he posted a 5.54 ERA, 3Ks, and a 1.69 WHIP. If Pelfrey’s is dropped this week in your league pick him up as he will become a key pitcher on your team. Owned in 84% of yahoo fantasy leagues.
3. KEVIN SLOWLEY MIN – The Twin’s starting pitcher is owned by 67% of yahoo fantasy leagues. Slowley has 7 wins on the year but has had two consecutive bad starts and has posted an ERA of 17.05 with no wins and a 2.84 WHIP.

Also Baltimore Orioles starting pitcher KEVIN MILLWOOD is 1-8 with a 5.12 ERA this year and it has been a tough year in Baltimore, to say the least, and Millwood has a lot of slumping teammates. But Millwood might be having the worst month of any of them, and that's saying something. In four starts in June, he's given up 23 runs in 22 2/3 innings, all of them earned. He has also given up 38 hits, including seven home runs and four doubles. What's wrong?
