youman only 1 er in last 29 1/3 innings of minor league ball. Capuano's kryptonite is Pittsburgh. Hard to back a minor league debut and a pitcher coming off the dl with unfavorable statistics. A simple stay-away game.

This isn't the minor league's...

eoghater - I think you might have some numbers incorrect. Here is the info from Rotoworld on Youman (posted on July 2nd):

Pirates recalled LHP Shane Youman from Triple-A Indianapolis.
Youman is the choice to repalce Zach Duke in the rotation even though he was a disappointment in Triple-A, going 4-6 with a 4.70 ERA, 94 H and 61/36 K/BB in 82 1/3 IP. NL-only leaguers should stay away.

"Youman has compiled a 4-6 record and 4.84 ERA during his 15 starts for the Indians this year, but his numbers have been better than that recently. Take out a forgettable start on June 21 and Youman has allowed only one run in 29 1/3 innings."

So they were a little skewed but still impressive. I'm aware it's the majors, but Capuano's first start off the dl usually is a lay-off bet.

Thanks for the clarification hater. Good luck today.
