Pitching was a strong point for the Halos last week with a team combined 1.60 ERA and 0.73 WHIP.
My rankings include the entire 40 man roster, not just the active 25.
These rankings were compiled with the help of MLB stats, FanGraphs, misc. data, personal opinion, and some fairy dust I found hidden in Shoemaker’s beard.

Changes:
Ryan Mattheus DFA
| Rank | Player | Last Week | Change | High | Low | Comments |
| 1 |  Garrett Richards |
1 | – | 1 | 8 | Opposing batters only hit .185 against Richards even though he got the loss thanks to the lack of run support. |
| 2 |  Jered Weaver |
2 | – | 1 | 14 | Two strong outings in a row. I guess those who were saying he might be broken have been proved wrong. Ace stuff again! |
| 3 |  Jose Alvarez |
3 | – | 3 | 8 | Alvarez has been our most reliable middle reliever so far in 2015 but he didn’t pitch last week. |
| 4 |  CJ Wilson |
4 | – | 3 | 12 | This version of Wilson has been awesome. Another strong 8 innings with only 2 runs given up. |
| 5 |  Huston Street |
7 |  +2 |
1 | 10 | Back on track. Two more saves last week. |
| 6 |  Joe Smith |
10 | +4 |
3 | 13 | Also back on track. 2.2 innings and 5 Ks. |
| 7 |  Cesar Ramos |
8 | +1 |
5 | 7 | 1 inning, 1 hit, 0 runs. |
| 8 |  Matt Shoemaker |
12 | +4 |
7 | 12 | Finally a good Shoe fitting. .125BAA last week with 8Ks over 7 great innings. |
| 9 |  Nick Tropeano*** |

3 | 11 | Had a so so week with 5.2IP and 6Ks while giving up 2 runs. |
| 10 |  Hector Santiago |
5 | -5 |
2 | 14 | Back to a bad week. He seriously is going back and forth. .280BAAA against and our worst starter in week 6. |
| 11 |  Mike Morin |
9 | -2 |
3 | 11 | Has not been pitching that great and had a .500BAA. Stop throwing batting practice Morin! |
| 12 |  Vinnie Pestano |
11 | -1 |
4 | 12 | Not doing overly wonderful this year. Also didn’t pitch last week. |
| 13 |  Cam Bedrosian*** |
13 | – | 13 | 17 | 6Ks over 3.2 innings. Strikeout machine yet again. |
| 14 |  Andrew Heaney*** |
14 | – | 10 | 16 | Heaney is 5-0 this spring in Salt Lake which is pretty good in a strong hitting league. However, he still has control issues and has 12 walks and a 1.41 WHIP this season. |
| 15 |  Fernando Salas |
16 | +1 |
15 | 18 | 2 scoreless hitless innings. Wheee. |
| 16 |  Jeremy McBryde*** |
18 | +2 |
16 | 19 | 2 innings. Good. |
| 17 |  Danny Reynolds** |
19 | +2 |
17 | 19 | 5IP, 1ER, 10Ks! |
| 18 |  Adam Wilk*** |
20 | +2 |
18 | 20 | 6 scoreless innings and 5Ks. |
| 19 |  Chad Smith*** |
21 | +2 |
19 | 21 | Had an earned run in each appearance last week. only moved up because Mattheus dropped off and Rucinski sucked bad. |
| 20 |  Drew Rucinski*** |
15 | -5 |
2 | 20 | I had high hopes for him but he’s been a disaster this year. Gave up 14 earned runs in 7.2 innings last week. Who let’s him give up that many runs unless they are trying to torture him? Poor guy. |
