That's true, team ERA isn't the best stat. I tried to get starter ERA because the debtae before the season was mainly about the rotations but MLB.com fucked up and I was too lazy to keep looking.
Alot of people thought Boston had the best rotation in the AL after Chicago before the season. I remember the general consensus by alot of writers was "Yankees have the hitting, Red Sox have the pitching." VEL was one guy who definately thought Boston had a better rotation than Oakland but that was more due to the fact that VEL could name probably 2 pitchers on the A's roster.
I thought the Red Sox pitching would be mediocre but I never would have thought they'd be 11 out of 14 in ERA.
