Tim Hudson: A Potential #2 SP for the Mets? (Sorry, Sam)
Brad Hawpe: Trade Candidate?
According to Fangraphs' E-F (ERA minus FIP) stat, Pelfrey had the 4th unluckiest E-F in all of baseball. HIs ERA for the season stands at 5.08, while his FIP stands at 4.38. The disparity most likely is a result of Pelfrey's low LOB% (66.4%, which is second-lowest in MLB) and his elevated BABIP (.322).

For fun, check out Ricky Nolasco's E-F (1.77). He was by the far the most unlucky starting pitcher in baseball this year. Look for him and Josh Johnson to be a formidable 1-2 next year for the Marlins.
